Today, a lawsuit was filed by Gerard Fox Law PC on behalf of Protection of the Educational Rights of Kids (PERK). PERK is bringing this lawsuit on behalf of more than 100 SAG-AFTRA members who have filed individual complaints for damages in Los Angeles Superior Court against their Union. The lawsuits highlight SAG-AFTRA’s poorly enacted “Return-to-Work Agreement” (RTWA), later named COVID-19 Safety Agreement. The RTWA subjected SAG-AFTRA union members to invasive testing, masking, and being banned from work. In many cases, they were effectively blacklisted from the industry altogether. Dozens of SAG-AFTRA members were banned from work without proof of the COVID-19 vaccine, forced to sign up for a digital health passport to enter production grounds, or denied hot meals on set. Other members were terminated because they would not comply with the COVID mandate and measures. Other members stood by watching employment opportunities vanish as movie industry representatives, agents, managers, stunt coordinators, and dance choreographers fielded employment-guarded opportunities when requiring “vaccinated only” submissions without any protection from SAG-AFTRA.
