In December, 177 production workers at Nickelodeon voted to join the Animation Guild, which also represents workers at DreamWorks Animation and Walt Disney Studios.
The group of 177 employees, which include production managers, production coordinators and post-production assistants in Los Angeles, decided to unionize in early December. The next step will be for the group to negotiate its first contract.
“By doing this, the studio has shown that they are willing and ready to recognize the hard work, time and love we pour into our productions,” the organizing committee said in a statement.A majority of the 177 production workers at Nickelodeon vote to join the Animation Guild in a bid for higher pay and affordable healthcare benefits.
Initially, Nickelodeon, owned by Paramount Global, had resisted recognizing the group and the inclusion of production workers into its existing collective bargaining agreement under the Animation Guild, which includes artists and computer graphics technicians.
