This is another compelling new chapter in the trade union story that’s being written across the world in Apple, says GMB Union
Apple retail workers in Glasgow have today [Wednesday 2 November] made history by becoming the first store to win trade union recognition.
Workers will celebrate their success with a rally and photo call outside the Buchanan Street store this evening at 19.00 hours, having secured a clear majority of two-thirds support for recognition following a statutory ACAS ballot.

John Slaven, GMB Organiser, said:
“This is an absolutely historic moment and testament to the hard work of the activists and workers in at the Buchanan Street store – it’s another compelling new chapter in the trade union story that’s being written across the world in Apple.
“The workforce has spoken in a loud and clear voice to achieve recognition, making the case that they are pro-worker and not anti-employer, and that trade unionism should be a normal and welcome feature of any workplace in any industry.”
