The union sent out an email on Tuesday to answer members’ questions about a possible writers’ strike. The DGA contract does not expire until June 30, so the directors cannot go on strike before then.
“Our no-strike clauses are clear,” the union’s leaders said. “However, as an individual, you cannot be forced to work. If you, as an individual, refuse to cross a picket line and perform your DGA-covered services, then your Employer has the right to replace you.” Writer-directors, who are members of both guilds, may feel pressure not to show up on set while their WGA brethren are on the picket lines. The DGA advised members that if they are employed solely in their director capacity, then they have to keep working.If the WGA goes on strike, it is expected to issue a set of rules about what work it expects can and cannot be done and by whom.The WGA continues to negotiate with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
“We are closely monitoring the WGA-AMPTP negotiations, and should it become clear a strike is imminent, we are prepared to inform our members of all relevant individual rights and obligations,” wrote Matt Loeb, the international president of the union.on Wednesday that arrangements can be made to allow employees to continue to show up to work without crossing picket lines.
