Screen Actors Guild and American Federation of Television and Radio Artists are pleased to announce the beginning of the Joint Wages & Working Conditions (W&W) process in preparation for negotiation of the Commercials Contracts that were extended from October 29, 2008 to March 31, 2009. It is only through the involvement of members that proposals for this vital negotiation are developed.

Attention members who are actively producing:
SAG members who are actively producing cannot attend the W&W Committee Meetings due to conflict of interest. However, you are welcome to attend the W&W caucuses. Please check the Contract 2008 section of www.sag.org for caucus dates and times.

How to make your voice heard:

Local Joint Wages & Working Conditions Committee Meetings - These formal meetings held in Las Vegas, Nevada use the information and ideas gathered from the caucuses to create proposals for the 2009 contract negotiations. If you are interested in joining our committee, please contact Linda Dowell via email at ldowell@sag.org.

Note: The meetings will be held in Las Vegas, tentatively scheduled to begin November 21. You will be notified with more information at a later date.

Email Suggestions - Can’t make it to a caucus or committee meeting? You can still play an active part by emailing your ideas to commercialswandw@sag.org or at commercialswandw@aftra.com. All proposal recommendations will be reviewed by the Joint Wages & Working Conditions Committee. Please note that the last day for suggestions is Friday December 5, 2008.

Contribute your ideas today. Help create the contract of tomorrow!

Dates and times subject to change as the process and the committees’ work unfold. Notice will be given of any changes.
