Unionized workers at Noisy Creek, Inc secure first contract and win Labor Harmony Agreement

Unionized workers at Noisy Creek, Inc which represents The Stranger in Seattle, The Portland Mercury, EverOut and Bold Type Tickets have ratified a three-year agreement with 3% and 2.5% yearly raises, step raises based on your years of service, and great language on the use of artificial intelligence.

Importantly, this agreement set the tone for all purchases Noisy Creek makes in the future due to the Seattle Labor Council’s (MLK Labor) Labor Harmony Agreement negotiated with Noisy Creek. In that agreement, all newly purchased entities of Noisy Creek’s will have a “card check” or be given voluntary recognition with a first contract guaranteed in six months of certification. Noisy Creek recently purchased the already union Chicago Reader and they will begin bargaining a new CBA in January which they can base off the incredible wins of the PNW workers.
