The MFA Boston reaches its first union contract after 18 months of negotiations, a one-day strike, and an intervention from Boston Mayor Michelle Wu:
. The agreement follows 18 months of negotiations and an intervention on the part of Boston Mayor Michelle Wu to help both sides to reach a deal.
“Mayor Wu’s willingness to get involved and to help both sides focus and narrow their differences was absolutely key,” union bargaining committee member and museum development staffer Emma Rose Rainville said in a statement. “We are grateful for her leadership and advocacy in helping us reach a deal that truly supports the union membership.”
Moving forward, the museum will also do away with using different salary scales that started finance and development staff at higher compensation than those in traditional museum and library positions such as curators and conservators, a practice introduced in 2006.
