Apple reportedly plans to bargain with the first of its U.S. stores that has voted to unionize.
Employees at Apple’s store in Towson, Md., recently voted 65-33 to unionize, making it the first of the tech giant’s 270-plus U.S. stores in the United States to do so. The 65 employees voted in favor of being represented by a new union — Apple Coalition of Organized Retail Employees — that will be part of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, an industrial trade union.
According to a report by Reuters, Apple accepts the outcome of the vote by Maryland store workers and intends to participate in the bargaining process in “good faith.”
