Equity official Dominic Bascombe said: “The signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Bradford 2025 is a win for the region, a win for workers and a win for audiences.
Unions have signed an agreement with Bradford City of Culture aimed at ensuring creative workers engaged in the programme will receive decent pay and conditions.
The deal for this year’s City of Culture guarantees that professional creative workers are engaged on terms in line with collectively-bargained agreements.
“It will ensure that our members are employed on agreed minimum terms, with training and development opportunities for younger creatives and respect for the intellectual property rights of our members.
Equity, the Musicians’ Union, Bectu, and Artists Union England welcomed the signing of a so-called Memorandum of Understanding.
