Membership with Local 484
These are not matters to be taken lightly. Be sure you understand the commitment required to work professionally in this industry and within this Local as a contributing member.
THE BASICS
Becoming a member means while working on a union production, you will have full union representation that includes guaranteed rates and paid benefits.
- The Business Manager will release updates on projects within our jurisdiction that
include contact information for you to reach out to.- Texas and Oklahoma are right-to-work states, therefore you will come across plenty of independent features; members are required to report their work regardless of union status or the size of the production. This helps us monitor the benefits you’re eligible for.
Local 484 does not prohibit you from working on independent productions.
Members are expected to participate in the local by attending monthly membership meetings and are encouraged to join committees.
LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP
Once you join the Local, you are a member of IATSE for life.
- If you are expelled or take an honorable withdrawal, you will be removed from the referral list and owe back dues to the Local and the International upon rejoining.
BENEFITS COVERAGE
The IATSE National Benefit Funds will process all benefits accrued on union projects.
- All coverage information may be found by contacting their office in New York at 1 (800) 456-3863 or www.iatsenbf.org
