Der erste Tarifvertrag Gast für abhängig beschäftigte Gäste, ist ein großer Meilenstein und regelt Entgeltfortzahlung im Krankheitsfall, Ausfallgagen für abgesagte Vorstellungen sowie Proben und Regelungen zum Urlaub. Die Schwestergewerkschaften BFFS, GDBA und VdO verhandeln mit dem Deutschen Bühnenverein über weitere Regelungen für die abhängig beschäftigten Gäste. Ein Auszug des Zielekatalogs:
Full coverage of travel costs to and from work, a public transport ticket and regular trips home
Accommodation is to be provided by the employer. Either as a financial lump sum or as a theater apartment with minimum standards: own WC, W-LAN, cooking facilities, washing facilities, public transport connections
All working time regulations from the NV Bühne should also apply to guests
Guests should be released for work acquisition (auditions, auditions, auditions, audition dates) subject to a notice period, unless there are significant operational reasons to the contrary
Outside of final rehearsal times, guests shall be granted unpaid leave of absence to attend other professional appointments, e.g. filming dates, readings, stand-in appointments, unless there are significant operational reasons to the contrary
The minimum guest fee should be calculated taking into account individual professional experience
The introductory fee should be at least 20% (instead of 10%) of the respective monthly fee
At the beginning of the contract, 1/3 of the contractually agreed total remuneration (rehearsal fee and agreed performances) shall be paid. Fees shall be paid immediately after the performance, but no later than the end of the month in which the contractual performance was rendered or should have been rendered
The number of performances and their remuneration must be specified in the contract. Contractually agreed performances are binding
Contractual and employment periods must be clearly specified in the contract, blocking dates must be recorded
Before concluding the contract, the stage must agree with the guest on the social security status and the social security registration
If the employer wishes to make further arrangements after the contract has been concluded, this requires the guest's consent
If the employer wishes to agree further periods for unilateral scheduling, appropriate remuneration must be paid for these periods, regardless of whether the period is used by the employer or not. Actual scheduled performances during this period must also be remunerated. This remuneration is offset pro rata against the remuneration for keeping the period free
Theaters should generally pay the agency commission
Vacation is not considered to be compensated with the agreed fee. Vacation must be granted in kind during the contractual period
Remuneration must be agreed for rights of use (e.g. streaming). Exception: The right of use for live streaming during a performance
