Secretly Group Union Agrees to Contract With Management

The Secretly Group Union has secured a contract with its employers. The union members announced last night (October 11) that they successfully negotiated a contract with Secretly Group, and that they have voted to ratify the contract. “This was a long and very difficult fight, but we could not be prouder to be the first independent label group union,” the union wrote.

Secretly Group labels, including Secretly Canadian, Dead Oceans, and Jagjaguwar, also took to social media to announce that the collective bargaining agreement had been reached. Dead Oceans wrote:

Yesterday, @secretlyunion (OPEIU, Local 174) voted to affirm its collective bargaining agreement with SG Services, Inc., including Dead Oceans. This agreement marks a new chapter in Secretly’s ongoing commitment to our staff, to our workplace, and to the core values we bring to artist and label partners every day. A note of heartfelt thanks is in order: to everyone involved in reaching today’s agreement, to the depth of trust and respect that colleagues placed in one another and in this process, and to the effort and work put in to reach this milestone. Thank you all. The work of building a business that embodies our values is, and must be, an ongoing process. We are proud to be partnered with Secretly Group Union to that end. Together we will continue to support great art and artists and positively impact culture from a strong and supportive workplace.

Workers at Secretly Group, Secretly Distribution, Secretly Publishing, Numero Group, and Ghostly International announced their union last year. The Secretly Group Union (OPEIU Local 174) was organized with the Office and Professional Employees International Union, which has also assisted in organizing efforts across the music and TV industries.
