Meow Wolf workers in Denver unionize, get contract
June 22, 2023 // The Meow Wolf union is an affiliate of the Communications Workers of America. Denver Meow Wolf employees formally issued an intent to unionize in July 2022 and 70% of employees voted approval to join the union. Two bargaining units were formed for operations and security staff, union member Michael Wilson told The New Mexican. The four-year contract provides increases in wages, more paid time off, layoff protections, union participation in hiring, clear and consistent scheduling, a better-regimented employee review process and institutes progressive discipline and grievance procedures, Wilson said. Meow Wolf employees in Santa Fe unionized in 2020 with a contract ratified in April 2022, but the agreement didn't include Meow Wolf employees in Denver and Las Vegas, Nev.
Meow Wolf Denver workers form a local union, but they may face an uphill battle
July 8, 2022 // The Denver union, operating under the Communications Workers of America Local 7055, will ask ownership to recognize it promptly instead of pushing delays and expensive union-busting tactics, as it did in Santa Fe, according to a characterization by a union spokesman. The collective’s requests include job protections, higher wages, better disability accommodations, and a diverse workplace without discrimination and harassment. “We are not against Meow Wolf, because we are Meow Wolf,” organizers wrote on unionformeowwolf.com, the official site of the Meow Wolf Workers Collective (MWWC). “Forming a union is an act of care, for ourselves and those who work with us.” MWWC, Milagro Padilla, Jose Tolosa, Convergence Station, wage-and-benefit, Santa Fe, New Mexico, House of Eternal Return,
