NEW YORK—Workers at an Amazon.com Inc. warehouse near Albany, New York, are seeking to unionize, the National Labor Relations Board said in a statement on Tuesday.

The Amazon Labor Union—the same independent group that organized a historic union win at another warehouse on New York’s Staten Island in April—petitioned the federal labor board to hold an election at the warehouse near Albany and represent about 400 workers.
