Hollywood workers may have to be vaccinated to work on union film sets under new COVID-19 safety requirements.
Producers will have the option to mandate vaccinations for their cast and crews working in close proximity to actors, leading entertainment industry unions and an alliance of Hollywood producers said Monday night.
The measure is one of several protocols that are being updated along with relaxed testing and masking requirements in a new agreement that will run until Sept. 30, according to the joint statement signed by multiple unions and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
The short-term deal with SAG-AFTRA, the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees and other unions eases some of the safety protocols put in place last fall that provided for sick pay, testing, masking and other safety measures intended to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
