Apple workers in Towson, Md., vote to unionize, the first of the tech giant’s U.S. retail stores to do so
This vote is part of an organizing wave sweeping the nation as workers increasingly band together to demand higher pay, better benefits and more negotiating leverage with their employers during the pandemic. In New York, the first Amazon warehouse voted to form a union in the spring. Dozens of Starbucks stores across the country have unionized, and labor movements have pushed into outdoor retailer REI and video game maker Raven Software.
At the time, the organizing group sent a message to workers at the store, saying it would reset and “continue this fight.”Rebecca Givan, an associate professor of labor studies at Rutgers University, called Saturday’s outcome a big win for workers in the technology and retail sectors — and in particular for Apple employees outside Towson.
Several companies, including Amazon and Apple, have been accused this year of “union busting” or employing tactics to discourage or intimidate workers from joining unions. said this year that some workers were taken aside by managers and given a speech about the pitfalls of unionization there. In meetings, managers warned that unionization would mean the loss of benefits such as the ability to do stints at Apple’s corporate headquarters.
