A card check on Thursday found that 76 percent of workers supported the organization effort with AFSCME Council 36.
“The voluntary recognition agreement that the AFWU has negotiated with the Academy demonstrates the willingness of all parties to collaborate on behalf of our shared values and goals,” Academy Film Archive senior film archivist Sean Kilcoyne said in a statement. “We are encouraged that it only took a few weeks to get to this point and we look forward to working together to negotiate a contract that improves the lives and working conditions of all Academy Foundation employees.
Added Academy COO and Academy Museum general counsel Brendan Connell, Jr., “The Academy gladly recognizes the Academy Foundation Workers Union — alongside our IATSE and Academy Museum union employees — and its efforts to organize.” Connell continued, “The important work of these staff members to preserve and make film history accessible for the public is critical to the Academy’s mission. We look forward to working together for our organization’s successful future.
