As part of contract negotiations, staff at a Maryland Apple store have asked for higher wages, more time off, and overtime pay. They've also floated tipping.
Additionally, the workers have proposed bringing a tipping system into the store. Specifically, they’re looking to add the option for customers to tip 3%, 5%, or a custom amount at check-out with credit card transactions. The union’s Twitter accountthe proposal is likely to be “a little controversial.” However, the Coalition of Organized Retail Employees —as the union is named—notes that customers regularly try to tip already, without any recourse to do so.
. “Though we do not see tips as a major way of generating income we wanted to create an acceptable system that allows the occasional customer the ability to reward our team for their hard work.”Moreover, CORE described potential tips as a method of “profit-sharing,” and proposed that all tips would be pooled and split among workers in accordance with hours worked.
