Updated Commercial Rates from 1st September
The LTECH branch of BECTU was set up to represent Lighting Technicians, predominantly in the Feature Film, Commercial and TV Drama Sectors, known in BECTU as the Production Division.
If you are someone who doesn't traditionally work in the Production Division sector, you may benefit from being represented by a branch that is better suited to your type of work.
For Theatre, & Live Events members, you may be better under the:
Arts & Entertainment Division (A&E)
Created to provide a rallying point for venue technicians, in London and Regional BECTU Branches across the UK, to improve rates of pay, conditions and opportunities within the live events sector.
The Scottish Live Events Network (SLEN) is a recently formed branch of Bectu operating as a part of the national Live Events Network Sub-Division. The branch has been set up to provide better representation for everyone who works in the live events industry in Scotland.

Some A&E achievements
Any membership changes must be instigated by you under GDPR rules, so it is of the upmost importance that you keep your BECTU profile updated with not only your contact details, but also your sector of work as it may effect the information that you receive from the Union local office and HQ in London.Should you decide to move branches, it may take up to a month to remove your number off our Text Service, due to it being a lengthy manual process at head office. If you want to stop the texts immediately, you can Text: YC4Y6STOP to 60777 and the system will not send to your number any further.
