Intimacy Coordinators ‘Unanimously Vote To Join’ SAG-AFTRA

Katie Kilkenny at The Hollywood Reporter reports the Entertainment Industry’s Intimacy Coordinators have spoken: They want to Unionize with Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA).  In a National Labor Relations Board ballot count, all participating Intimacy Coordinators voted to join the 160,000-Member Performers’ Union.  “In these sobering times with looming threats to environmental protections and Women’s equality, it is refreshing to see the Entertainment Industry’s recognition of Intimacy Coordinators and their important contribution to productions and to performers in intimate scenes,” SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher said in a statement. “We at SAG-AFTRA are proud to include this esteemed group of trained professionals as the newest to join our member body.”
