VOTE OPENS NOV. 8 ON PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS

At the General Membership meeting on October 27, 2024, a second reading and debate occurred for two proposed amendments:

1. Constitution - Article 8.3(b) – Senior Steward: Add new language to include involvement in the collective bargaining between IATSE 891 and the Employers.
2. Bylaws – Article 7, Section 8 – Working Rules: Add new language to restrict members employed as a Head of Department (“HOD”) or in a supervisory role within the bargaining unit from working on multiple productions at the same time without advance approval from the Senior Steward.

In accordance with Article 12.2 of the IATSE 891 Constitution, a ballot on these proposed amendments must be sent to the membership within ten (10) business days following second reading. The ballot is now being prepared and will be sent out on November 8, 2024, or earlier. From that date, thirty (30) days shall be allowed for ballot return. A proposed amendment shall pass if two-thirds (2/3) of the members voting are in favour. As members of IATSE 891, we hope that you will participate in this democratic process and exercise your right to vote.
