Strike Date Set for 60,000 Film and Television Workers

  * October 13, 2021

[2021-10-10-AMPTP-Signmaking-LA-44-80-600-700-4-768x1024]

Unless an Agreement is Reached, IATSE Members Will Begin Nationwide
Strike on Oct. 18 at 12:01 a.m. (PDT)

LOS ANGELES, CA -- International Alliance of Theatrical Stage
Employees International President Matthew Loeb announced today that
unless an agreement is reached, union members will begin a nationwide
strike against the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television
Producers (AMPTP) on Monday, October 18 at 12:01 a.m., PDT.

Loeb said the union will continue bargaining with the producers this
week in the hopes of reaching an agreement that addresses core
issues, such as reasonable rest periods, meal breaks, and a living
wage for those on the bottom of the wage scale.

"However, the pace of bargaining doesn't reflect any sense of
urgency," Loeb said. "Without an end date, we could keep talking
forever. Our members deserve to have their basic needs addressed
now." 

Last week, IATSE members who work in television and film production
at 36 IATSE local unions across the country voted to authorize the
union's international president to call a strike if contract talks
didn't result in a new contract for 60,000 film and television
workers. Voter turnout was 90 percent, with 98.6 percent of those
voting in support of authorizing a strike.
