Cascade Public Media described the reorganization as a pivot to produce more multimedia journalism.
The contract includes protections for parents, improved pay and new anti-harassment rules.
Newsroom employees cited concerns with wages, vacation days and staffers leaving the organization.
A petition takes aim at Cascade Public Media CEO Rob Dunlop’s compensation and raises.
The union, which formed last summer, is calling for accountability on management’s stated commitments to diversity and inclusion.
Management has told the employees that it will not voluntarily recognize the union.
The changes are “the next step in our organization’s evolution,” President Rob Dunlop said.
