The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees wrapped up its first week of negotiations over the union’s Area Standards Agreement with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers on Friday. IATSE and the AMPTP will head back to the table next week following the Memorial Day holiday on Tuesday, May 28.
“This negotiation is fundamentally about ensuring the employers respect our right to get off out feet and get some rest during a long workday, to get home safely and see our families and have some economic stability,” IATSE International president Matthew D. Loeb said in a statement.
