Further, Bhakta argues that Apple’s equity agreements unlawfully allow the company to reclaim vested stock if employees disclose confidential information. He contends these policies hinder employees from advancing professionally or addressing workplace grievances.

Filed under California’s Private Attorneys General Act, the lawsuit seeks penalties, injunctive relief, and coverage of legal costs. Bhakta, represented by attorneys from Outten & Golden LLP and Baker Dolinko & Schwartz PC, hopes the case will prompt Apple to revise its policies and encourage employees to advocate for their rights.

Apple has not yet commented on the allegations.
