The U.S. National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which is responsible for enforcing labor laws, accused Apple of violating workers’ rights after the company severely limited how and what topics its employees could use social media and the Slack messenger for workplace communication. In addition, the iPhone manufacturer may have illegally fired an employee who proposed changes to workplace conditions and matters via Slack. Another worker was forced to delete a social media post.
The NLRB is filing its second complaint against Apple this month, accusing the company last week of forcing its employees to sign illegal non-disclosure, non-disclosure and non-compete agreements across the country and intruding excessively on their social media activities.

Apple does not agree with the allegations, it also denied the infringement in relation to the previous complaint. It says it respects employees’ right to freely discuss issues and opinions about wages and working conditions among themselves. If the company fails to reach an agreement with the NLRB, an administrative judge will hold a hearing on the case in February. The judge’s decision can be reviewed by a five-member labor committee, whose decision can be appealed to the federal court.
The history of the latest case goes back three years, when Janneke Parrish, who was fired by Apple, turned to the organization for help. According to the former employee, he was wrongfully dismissed after taking a leading role in the employees’ acquittal activities. Parrish detailed alleged gender and racial discrimination at Apple via Slack and social media, and published open letters criticizing the company.
The NLRB also agreed late last year that Apple had violated labor law by denying union workers benefits that were due to other employees. This comes after the board concluded in June that the Cupertino giant engaged in anti-union behavior at its World Trade Center store by restricting workers’ access to union leaflets and requiring them to listen to anti-union speeches .
