The US NLRB says Apple executive comments and policies for staff violate workers' rights, after ex-employees Ashley Gjøvik and Cher Scarlett filed cases in 2021
including from Tim Cook and Dierdre O'Brien—and rules around employee surveys and speaking out. Today I was notified that the NLRB's division of advice found merit in those charges and recommended issuing complaints. #AppleToo Josh Eidelson / @josheidelson : Labor Board prosecutors found merit in several cases brought by former Apple employees Ashley Gjovik and Cher Scarlett https://www.bloomberg.com/... Absent a settlement, the agency will issue complaint, teeing up a trial before an agency judge, and then potential subsequent appeals https://twitter.com/... @ashleygjovik : @InFROPHell I don't get any money or other type of remedy for me personally. Instead I get something better. I get veto power for whatever settlement Apple tries to arrange with the NLRB (assuming Apple doesn't let it go to trial). You better believe I'll fight for something like that! 💙 https://twitter.com/... @ashleygjovik : The best part of this is that these charges are about Apple's US employee policies & statements made to workers nationally. Apple's remedy will also need to be national. All of the hell the last two years is worth it for this. Let us be free. 💙🕊️ @infrophell : What I would give for them to force Apple to do this.

It's important to note that no complaints have been issued yet. It's a statutory requirement for government agencies to try to settle issues between parties first.
📣In 2021 I filed 3 charges about Apple's conduct—including from Tim Cook and Dierdre O'Brien—and rules around employee surveys and speaking out. Today I was notified that the NLRB's division of advice found merit in those charges and recommended issuing complaints. #AppleToo
