• Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh TNG/CWA 38061

    Union dues authorization form
  • The Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh, Local 38061, represents newsroom journalists at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and full-time faculty at Point Park University. This site is strictly used for the collection of union dues within the Post-Gazette unit. For a union to be strong and healthy, it's important that all Guild employees at the PG remain members and pay their dues. Together, we make up the Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh and your dues serve as an important investment to ensure you are covered and protected by the Guild and that you remain in good standing within CWA. You matter, the work you produce matters, and so does your representation in your Guild. In solidarity!

  • Dues are used for bargaining contracts, defending your worker rights, solving issues in the workplace, and organizing social gatherings. Your local also uses its share of dues money, which equates to about 53%, to cover the cost of representing employees in disputes and negotiating contracts, legal fees to defend our contracts, union publications, meetings, training programs, and maintaining the local office. The Guild sector is part of a larger umbrella union, the Communications Workers of America (or CWA), which has more than half a million members working in every segment of the economy. Eleven percent of your money goes to the CWA’s Member Relief Fund. This fund includes money from every member and is used to provide support for people who need financial help because they have been forced to go on strike or who have been locked out by their employers. Another 36 percent of your dues go to the Newspaper Guild international union, the “umbrella” that includes all the Guild locals in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico that make up the 30,000-member Newspaper Guild.
