MOONACHIE, NJ-The employees of 4Wall Entertainment New York are now covered under a new collective bargaining agreement between the company and the IATSE Local 632 of Northeast New Jersey. In addition to providing Union membership for 4Wall employees, the agreement empowers 4Wall New York to bid on Union events for the first time in the company's history.
"I would like to commend the negotiators from both the Union and 4Wall on achieving a contract that is mutually beneficial and will enable the two parties to bring the best theatrical lighting to tours, industrials, motion pictures, and television, as well as the legitimate stages on Broadway," said Kevin O' Brien, president of IATSE Local 632. "We are proud that 4Wall is now a union shop."
Joseph Villani, the Union's Business Manager, added, "I am confident that the new agreement will mean more work for our current members and enable us to offer the benefits of IATSE membership to an expanding group of 4Wall employees."
The agreement became effective January 9, 2010, and runs through January 9, 2013.
