Judge Rules Apple Illegally Interrogated and Interfered With Unionizing Efforts at NYC Store

  • Apple subjected employees at their World Trade Center store to coercive interviews about unionizing and wage levels according to a US labor board judge.
  • The judge ordered Apple to cease these illegal practices and post notices informing employees of their rights.
  • Apple also improperly interfered with the distribution of pro-union flyers at the store.
  • This is the first time an administrative law judge has ruled against Apple, though the company is free to appeal the ruling.
  • The decision comes as part of a broader effort by some Apple retail employees to unionize for higher pay and benefits.
