IMPROVE OUR TV/THEATRICAL CONTRACTS
Ask yourself: Why is there a lot more work...but a lot less money?
There is more production now than ever before...but our contracts are simply not good enough. The last round of negotiations proved that we need a stronger strategic approach and more aggressive negotiators.
WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE?
Even our most fortunate, frequently working performers are struggling to earn a living because of poorly negotiated contracts and the absolute lack of vision on the part of the current administration. Residuals are often part of a “buy-out” buried in what used to be their fees.
WHAT IS OUR SOLUTION?
We will make sure that our new national leadership seats strong and aggressive negotiators determined to get us contracts that fairly reflect our value and allow members to earn a living wage.
