Apple and the union representing workers at its Towson, MD, retail store have reached a tentative, but groundbreaking agreement, marking the first-ever labor deal the iPhone maker has entered with its employees in the United States.
The Towson store workers, who voted to join the International Association of Machinists (IAM) union in June 2022, have been negotiating for their first contract since then. In May, they authorized a strike, although no deadline was set for the action.
