UNI Media, Entertainment & Arts (UNI MEI) unites unions and guilds to raise standards and enforce rights for creatives, technicians and auxiliary workers. Together, member unions take on pressing problems such as low pay, long hours and unsafe working conditions and campaign for freedom of expression and association, equality, diversity and a just digital transformation. The MEI sector is one of the most dynamic sectors within UNI Europa with a wide range of activities. For more than 20 years, the sector is engaged in two EU social dialogue processes - in the audiovisual and live performance sectors. Together with European employers’ associations, we are addressing economic, employment and social policies and undertake joint actions to advance economic and social progress and to promote good governance in the cultural and creative industries. The social partners have been implementing a series of joint projects including on health and safety, gender equality and diversity, skills and career development and the promotion of social dialogue.
