AFTRA Clause Samples
The AFTRA clause refers to provisions in contracts that address the involvement of performers who are members of the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), now part of SAG-AFTRA. This clause typically outlines the requirements for hiring union talent, adherence to union rules, and payment of applicable union fees or residuals. For example, it may specify that all performers must be union members or that the production must comply with union working conditions. The core function of the AFTRA clause is to ensure that productions meet union standards, thereby protecting performers' rights and ensuring legal compliance with industry labor agreements.
