Demystifying Contract Negotiations (Part 2)

In part 2 of our series on contract negotiations, we explore the bargaining and ratification process, including communication with other unions before talks begin, the structure and dynamic of different negotiation sessions, and the challenges in achieving the union’s desired contract terms. Our panel of demystifiers includes SAG-AFTRA National Executive Director and Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, Executive Vice President Linda Powell, Chief Contract Officer Ray Rodriguez, and Co-Chair of the TV Animation Negotiating Committee David Jolliffe. **The views expressed by the guests are their own and not that of SAG-AFTRA.
