Members of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) have ratified two contracts with Hollywood’s studios.
Members of a union that represents film and television crews have ratified two contracts with Hollywood’s studios that address the union’s call for better working hours, safer workplace conditions and improved benefits. On Monday, the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees said 56% of the 641 delegate votes from all 36 locals voting for the basic and area standards agreements were in favor of the deal, while 44% voted „no.“ „From start to finish, from preparation to ratification, this has been a democratic process to win the very best contracts,“ said Matthew Loeb, IATSE’s international president.
