Common use of 202 GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF AGREEMENT Clause in Contracts

202 GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF AGREEMENT. (A) The provisions of this Agreement shall apply only to work on television commercials based in the United States and performed in the United States (including its territories and dependencies) and Canada; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement shall also apply to work performed by any person employed by the Employer in the United States to direct or to be a Unit Production Manager or an Assistant Director on a television commercial based outside the United States (including its territories and dependencies). If the Director is so employed in the United States and is sent, by the Employer, outside the United States, as defined, for photographing of principal photography on a television commercial produced by Employer, then a First Assistant Director need not be sent to any foreign production where an applicable foreign labor restriction, quota or law prohibits such an assignment or where such an assignment would result in the loss of a foreign production subsidy. The Employer shall give the Guild prompt written notice when a First Assistant Director cannot be taken due to any of the foregoing conditions. (B) In those situations where an applicable foreign labor restriction, quota or law prohibits the assignment of a First Assistant Director from the United States or where such an assignment would result in the loss of a foreign production subsidy, the Employer shall give preference of employment to DGA-represented First Assistant Directors (i) who reside in the country where production is taking place; or (ii) who hold a work permit or are otherwise eligible to work in said country and are eligible for employment as a local hire (i.e., the assignment does not require that the Employee be transported to that country for employment). A First Assistant Director employed pursuant to this provision who does not live within commuting distance of the location of the commercial may, subject to individual negotiation, be employed as a local hire pursuant to this Agreement.
