The request was made to the employer in the last few days, which has still not responded to the branch union.
The union indicates that the approach would allow employees to feel valued at work.
“Apple should integrate the tip option for all its in-store terminal transactions. The options would be: no tip, 3%, 5%, custom tip. This will allow customers to express their satisfaction with the service received. […] tips would be redistributed among employees” suggests, among others, the “Coalition of Organized Retail Employees”.
Discussions between the employer and the union are still ongoing, reports “Bloomberg”.
The Apple Store branch affected by this change is located in Towson, Maryland.
The reactions are shared on social networks. Many believe that the culture of tipping “goes too far”. Here are some reactions collected on Twitter.
“This tipping culture is out of control.”
“If customers are willing to, why not, but I’m never going to tip a retail employee.”
