IATSE may be getting into the video game business as the union may soon represent Workinman Interactive to help industry workers.

, the National Labor Relations Board tallied up a vote today from Workinman Interactive, who voted unanimously to join the crew union. Workinman has ties to making games and interactive products for Disney, Atari, Nickelodeon, Fisher-Price, and more. By doing so, they have set the groundwork for the union to make its first venture into representing working in the video game industry, as they will be organizing a campaign at the studio.

"I believe that today's unanimous ballot count is a testament to how strong and collected our union has been. And not just here at Workinman, but everyone that has lent their support and encouragement. This is an incredible step forward and I'm excited to move towards the next leg of the journey," Workinman quality assurance tester Matteo Collier said in a statement.
