# SAG-AFTRA requirements

## Overview

Before inviting SAG-AFTRA workers to a project in Wrapbook, there are important steps you'll need to complete.

## Complete an onboarding call

In order to pay SAG-AFTRA workers, you must complete an onboarding call with your Wrapbook Customer Success Manager (CSM) before the start of your production.

## Provide documentation

We’ll also need copies of the following documentation:

- **Your executed SAG-AFTRA agreement** - This contract provides Wrapbook with important information about the agreement's terms and conditions, as well as P&H percentages
- **Exhibit Gs** - *Exhibit G* is a *Production Time Report Form* used to track the working hours of performers, ensuring fair compensation, safety, and union record-keeping
- **Union Startwork** for all SAG-AFTRA workers

To learn how to add these documents to your project, see [Add a project document](/v1/docs/add-a-project-document).

Failure to provide this documentation in a timely manner can result in payroll delays and additional fees from SAG-AFTRA.

### Required production information

Productions are required to provide signatory information so Wrapbook can report benefits. If you don’t have this information for your production, please reach out to your SAG-AFTRA representative. Failure to provide accurate information may result in late reporting, liquidated damages charged by the health plan, and a possible delay in returning the security deposit.

In order to report health benefits on behalf of your production, the following *Signatory* and *Production* information is required:

#### Signatory ID

- This is the account number the SAG-AFTRA has assigned to the signatory company
- The *Signatory ID* is required for all remittances. Failure to provide accurate information may result in late reporting, and the production will be responsible for liquidated damages charged by the health plan
- Please note, the *Signatory ID* is NOT the same identification number as the *Production ID*

#### Production ID

- This is the account number typically assigned to a project
- The *Production ID* is used by the SAG-AFTRA health plan when trying to locate specific projects/series
- When production wraps, it’s common for the health plan to reach out to the payroll house to ensure contributions have correctly been reported
- The *Production ID* is used as the unique identifier when the health plan reaches out to clear a project before the security deposit can be released back to production
- Please note, the *Production ID* is NOT the same identification number as the *Signatory ID*

#### Production Title

- This is the title of the project registered with SAG-AFTRA
- This is required for all remittances and will be used to report to the health plan
- Please avoid acronyms and use the exact title on file with SAG-AFTRA

### Pension & Health (P&H) percentage

- Wrapbook collects SAG-AFTRA pension and health withholdings and remits them to SAG-AFTRA benefits
- In order to process your payroll without delays, Wrapbook will need to know your SAG-AFTRA P&H percentage as soon as you’re aware of it
- Please reach out to your paymaster with this information
