Condé Nast’s union reaches agreement before the Met Gala
The Condé Nast Union has reached an agreement with its parent company ahead of tonight’s Met Gala. The publishing house has begun a tentative initial contract with union workers at its various publications, which include Vogue, GQ, Teen Vogue, and more, according to The New York Times. The deal’s terms include $3.3 million in overall company wage increases, as well as a $61,500 initial starting salary, two additional weeks of family leave, greater bereavement leave, and ending its current “two-tier permanence system.” News broke on the union’s social media early this morning ahead of the Gala, where its members threatened to form a picket line that attending celebrities would have to cross to enter the event.
