Salt Lake Tribune Workers Unionize

The Salt Lake Tribune has been publishing in Utah since 1870, and on Monday, a supermajority of its reporters, photographers, web designers, and artists asked the nonprofit's board of directors, editors, and CEO to voluntarily recognize the Salt Lake News Guild, the Denver Post reports.

The union is represented by the Denver Newspaper Guild and Communications Workers of America.

"The Salt Lake Tribune has been an essential news source in Utah for more than 150 years," says Jeff Dempsey, an audience manager at the paper.

"Our goal with the union is to work in equal partnership with management to ensure it remains essential for the next 150 years and beyond."

More than 70% of the staff signed a mission statement committing the group to "the ideals that have been the bedrock of The Tribune since 1870."

If management refuses to recognize the union, the matter goes to a poll with the National Labor Relations Board.

The hope is that a union can insulate reporters from intense pressures to generate pageviews, says Carmen Nesbitt, an education reporter at the paper.

"Think about what it would've meant for Utah if we hadn't survived," she says.

"Our team has sacrificed a lot for this place.

We cherish its role in the community in a way most can't understand."
