US Labor Board Withdraws Claims That Apple CEO Violated Workers’ Rights

The US labor board has abandoned its allegations that Apple Inc. Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook violated federal labor law, one of many cases where the agency is adopting a more business-friendly approach under President Donald Trump.

In a Friday letter viewed by Bloomberg News, the general counsel’s office of the National Labor Relations Board said it was withdrawing many of the claims in a complaint it had issued against Apple in January.
