Please find the 2005, 2002 conclusion excerpt and 1998 Jurisdictional Dispute awards outlining the jurisdiction of the various pieces of equipment utilized by the film unions.
To summarize, the 2005 award reiterates the former decisions and concludes that IATSE members and others, may use Gators/ ATVs to transport their ‘tools of the trade’ and Teamsters transport cast and crew. The use of small trailers shall be minimal and future use of trailers requires consultation between all parties prior to their use.
If an issue or perceived issue with regard to jurisdiction arises on your production, please contact your shop steward and/or the Union for guidance.
