The Writers Guild of America West (WGAW) is a labor union representing writers of motion pictures and television, including news and documentaries. A democratic organization, we negotiate and enforce contracts that protect the creative, economic, and civil rights of our members. The WGAW fights to maximize writer compensation, protect earned health and pension benefits, promote inclusive work environments, and align the interests of talent agencies with their writer clients. We are involved in a wide range of industry initiatives and partnerships, and active in public policy and legislative matters at the local, national, and international levels.
