Teamsters and Basic Crafts Unions Reach Tentative Deal on New Contract


The Hollywood Basic Crafts unions, including the Teamsters, have reached a tentative deal on a new contract.

Workers have been struggling with an industrywide contraction, and have hoped that the agreements will resolve any uncertainty that might be holding back a return to full strength in production. The Basic Crafts unions represent about 8,000 workers in total, including drivers, animal wranglers, location managers, electricians and laborers. IATSE’s contract covers about 70,000 workers, and provides 7% increases in the first year, triple time after 15 hours, and some protections from artificial intelligence.
