REMINDER: New, Required COVID-19 Prevention Training For All Work Under IATSE Contracts
Updated On: Aug 24, 2021

As part of the Return To Work Agreements recently negotiated with the AMPTP (Alliance of Motion Picture and TV Producers) and the AICP (Association of Independent Commercial Producers), the IATSE has negotiated required COVID-19 prevention training in order to ensure that our workforce can return to work safely. This 45 minute, online course will provide you with an overview of the types of safety protocols to expect to help keep you safe as you return to work. This course has been optimized for completion on a mobile device or smartphone, as well as a desktop computer, for added convenience.

This is meant to be paid training ($20) so if you have work upcoming or are on a job currently there are a couple options employers have for payment:

  • Employers pay a pre-employment Covid-19 testing stipend for up to 4 hours of time needed for travel outside your home for testing or to ship your test.
    • Covid-19 testing stipend is $250 for Motion Picture projects or $175 for Commercial projects
    • The employer can include the C-19 training time as part of the pre-employment testing time and you are not owed anything additonal.The employer can include the C-19 training time as part of the pre-employment testing time and you are not owed anything additonal.
    • If your times spent testing for Covid-19 is 4 hours or more OR  you should receive $20 for completing the Covid-19 training
  • You may take the test on your own and show proof of Covid-19 training to your next employer who should pay you $20 stipend in your first check (employers still may lump this into the stipend for Covid-19 pre-employment testing as long as you don't spend more than 3 hours on Covid-19 testing.)
