Washingtonian Staffers Vote to Strike Over $60,000 Salary Floor Dispute

3 articles · Updated · The Washington Post · Nov 12

Washingtonian magazine staffers voted Thursday to authorize a strike after five years of contract talks failed to produce a deal.
The main sticking point is pay: the union wants a $60,000 minimum salary for covered employees, while management has offered $42,500.
The Washington-Baltimore News Guild said the offer is inadequate for living in the Washington area; the bargaining unit includes newsroom, art and digital staff.
Union officials are still setting the date for a one-day strike, and Washingtonian management did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
