SAG members ratify new pact


June 09, 2009 SAG's national board recommended the contract to the membership for ratification April 19 by a mere 53% to 47%. Among the terms of the new deal are a 3% wage increase and a 0.5% pension and health plan contribution increase. Jurisdiction and compensation for new-media work, which sparked much of the internal and external debate, were established for the first time, as they were in the DGA, AFTRA and WGA contracts negotiated last year.
