AppleTogether, the worldwide solidarity union,
is celebrating four major accomplishments this week!
-
Oklahoma City Apple Store (Penn Square) just voted to join CWA, becoming the first store to do so. They are the second store to unionize in the USA this year, after the Towson Maryland Apple Store joined IAM in June. Cumberland Mall Apple Store in Atlanta is expected to have a vote to join CWA in a few months.
-
The Apple Retail Workers Union will launch their vote to unionize the Glasgow store with GMB tomorrow, October 18th. The vote will run through the beginning of November as it is a postal vote.
-
RAFFWU (Retail and Fast Food Workers Union) in Australia that represents Apple retail employees in every store, will strike on October 18th, rejecting Apple’s lowball contract offer after a dozen collective bargaining sessions went nowhere . Per RADFWU, this is the first nationally coordinated industrial action in Australian history.

AppleTogether will be releasing a Pro-union propaganda short film after the Australian strikes. The trailer can be seen here:
