Workers at the Towson, Maryland, Apple retail store, the first in the country to unionize, will vote on the tentative agreement on August 6.

Workers at Apple's Towson store voted in favor of authorising a strike in May.

In June 2022, Apple workers at Maryland voted to join the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers union, becoming the first retail employees of the tech giant to unionize in the United States.

Apple did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
