Overseas per diems are becoming a contentious issue for members of crew. In some cases crew and performers are paid around $80 a day instead of the recommended rates advised by the Alliance. Some companies offer different rates to crew from what they are willing to pay the cast. Overseas per diems should form part of contract negotiations before each tour. Alliance members about to embark on an overseas tour are advised to contact the Alliance on 1300 656 512.
