Apple affirms employees' right to speak about working conditions, in a win for #AppleToo movement

Apple posted a statement to its employees Friday evening reminding them of their rights to speak up about their pay and working conditions. The move comes after months of employee organizing in a movement that's come to be known as #AppleToo.

"Apple is deeply committed to providing employees with a workplace where they feel safe, respected, and inspired to do their best work," the company said in the statement posted to an internal employee portal, which was obtained by CNN Business. "Our policies do not restrict employees from speaking freely about their wages, hours, or working conditions."

The statement added that employees are welcome to raise concerns "in the way they feel most comfortable, internally or externally." NBC first reported the memo Friday.
