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.
Less than a week after the news site’s employees voted to unionize, management dismissed Florangela Davila over “differences in strategic outlook.”
Management has told the employees that it will not voluntarily recognize the union.
