List of early Apple Computer employees

The following is a list of early employees from Apple Computer Inc., the predecessor of Apple Inc. that was incorporated on January 3, 1977.

Some of the earliest staff had been working at the home of co-founder Steve Jobs' parents since the previous Apple Computer Company partnership was formed on April 1, 1976. The first eight badges were assigned in March 1977 by Michael Scott, Apple's first president, so the numbers may not reflect the order in which the these early staff joined the company. Employees who left Apple and returned are known to have been re-issued their previous badge number.
