Apple ke khilaf ek bada aarop lagaya gaya hai. IAM union ne company par unlawfully discrimination karne ka ilzaam lagaya hai. Ye case un unionized workers ke saath hua jo Apple ke Towson, Maryland retail store mein kaam karte the.
Kya hai poora mamla?
IAM union ne Apple ke khilaf NLRB mein unfair labor practice charge file kiya hai. Ye charge tab aaya jab Apple ne April 9 ko apne teen US stores ko band karne ka announcement kiya. In teen stores mein se ek Towson ka retail outlet tha, jahan karib 90 workers kaam karte the.
Ye Towson store khaas hai kyunki ye 2022 mein America ka pehla Apple Store tha jo unionize hua tha. IAM ka aarop hai ki Apple ne unionized employees ko woh transfer opportunities nahi di jo non-unionized employees ko di gayi. Doosre stores ke non-represented employees ko transfer mila, lekin Towson ke union workers ko nahi.
Union ka kya kehna hai?
IAM ka aarop hai ki Apple ne unlawfully discrimination kiya. Union ka kehna hai ki company ne unionized workers ke saath unfair behavior kiya. Towson store ke employees ko transfer opportunities nahi di gayi, jabki doosre stores ke non-union employees ko ye facility mili.
Hamaari Baat: Ye case kyun important hai?
Seedha baat karein toh ye case sirf ek store ka nahi hai. Ye poore US mein unionization ke trend ko represent karta hai. Jab Apple jaise bade tech company apne unionized store ko band kare aur union workers ko transfer na de, toh sawaal uthata hai ki kya ye discrimination hai. Hamari nazar mein, NLRB ko is case ko seriously lena chahiye. Agar Apple ne sach mein union workers ke saath unfair behavior kiya hai, toh ye ek dangerous precedent ban sakta hai doosri companies ke liye bhi.
