2018 Contract
"The new agreement runs through Nov. 26, 2022. It provides for a new weekly base minimum salary of $3,263, increasing to $3,570 in the final six months of the contract. The current amount is $3,200."
[LRH: 2018 is the contract that got cancelled during the pandemic, with musician salaries rolled back substantially to save money, with the possibility of SFS invoking force majeure to force even more extreme cuts.]
2023 Contract
“The new agreement will be applied retroactively from Nov. 27, 2022 [when the previous agreement expired] and runs through Nov. 18, 2024. The agreement provides for a new weekly base minimum salary of $3,313 upon ratification and increasing to $3,450 in the 2023–24 contract year, in addition to a retroactive lump sum payment to full-time musicians.”
[LRH: When the musician says their pay hasn't yet been restored to pre-pandemic levels, I believe they mean that the contract that expired last year didn't get to the planned $3,570 of the 2018 contract.]
2025 Offer from SFS ("Last, Best, and Final Offer")
A starting minimum annual salary of $189,332, rising to $196,976 by the end of the contract.
The three-year proposal starts at $3,641 minimum weekly scale (MWS) in the first year (retroactive to November 24, 2024)—representing a 5.5% increase above the current MWS. Each subsequent year provides 2% increases: $3,714 in contract year 2025–26 and $3,788 in 2026–27.
