Teamsters and Basic Crafts Unions Ratify Contracts
The Hollywood Basic Crafts ratified their contracts Thursday, which provide wage increases but do not address driverless trucks.
But the studios were not willing to break the wage pattern set by SAG-AFTRA last year and by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees — annual increases of 7%, 4% and 3.5%. “The significant economic gains, benefits, additional safety measures, and quality of life improvements in these new contracts reflect the immense value and contributions the hard-working members of these unions bring to Hollywood daily,” the studio group stated. “These deals will contribute to a stronger and more stable future for the motion picture industry – one that can continue to innovate and create and maintain well-paid jobs for its employees.”
