VICTORY! Today editorial employees of Insider overwhelmingly voted, 241-14 to be represented by @nyguild in a National Labor Relations Board election @insiderunion nyguild.org/post/editorial…
This victory came after more than 80% of the editorial staff requested and were denied voluntary recognition from Insider management. The employees then voted in a mail-ballot election at the NLRB, winning in a landslide.
Today’s win means more than 300 workers including reporters, web editors, producers, video editors, social media producers, animators, photographers, designers, and copy editors will now have union representation.
"We’ve been organizing and fighting for over a year now. We’re ready to win this election and celebrate with our unit — and then get back to business at the bargaining table," said William Antonelli, an editor at Insider.
.@insiderunion will work to increase transparency, improve diversity and inclusion and fight against pay disparities and other inequities in the workplace. The newsroom is the latest to join dozens of successful organizing drives and contract wins in media across the country.
We know @insiderunion will keep building a stronger, more equitable workplace for everyone. Solidarity!
