BALTIMORE — Workers at the Apple store in Towson have voted to unionize, becoming the first of the company’s U.S. employees to do so.
Cheers erupted Saturday night in the parking garage of the Towson Town Center, where workers had gathered to learn the results of the union election. The employees voted 65-33 to join the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.
“To be the first Apple store in the country to get a union is incredible,” said employee Tiawana Dugger, adding that the workers organized because they were “tired of being overlooked, tired of feeling like we weren’t heard, tired of not getting the things that we deserve.”
