NEWSROOM GUILD AND management representatives reconvened collective bargaining this morning. We spent the session exploring ideas/potential solutions in two key areas (one from management and one from the Guild) mentioned in yesterday’s memo:
- Flexibility in newsroom operations, including potential consolidation of print production being considered by Digital First Media
- YourHub mentoring/training opportunities and compensation
As mentioned yesterday, because it is early in the process it’s not feasible to give complete details of the discussions. However, we are in the process of scheduling additional bargaining dates for February, and we will keep you informed to the best of our ability as talks progress.
Meanwhile, please continue to make your views known by commenting below.
