have ratified a successor deal to the union’s master contract covering work on feature films and primetime television.
“I am grateful for the many members who got involved and used their voices to help set the priorities for this contract,” Carteris said following the vote results. “This is a forward thinking agreement that builds on the changing realities of the streaming business and positions our union to continue the fight for a safer workplace for all.”
Opponents had asserted the new contract will “destroy” syndication with the decades-old fixed residual formula seeing a three-year loss of $70 million and an eight-year loss of $170 million. They have also argued that 1.5% of the 2% pension and health increase will be deducted from the wage increase and that dropping the provision to require first-class travel for under 1,000 miles puts members at risk in the COVID era.
