WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT SAFETY
Ensuring health and safety standards in film and TV production isn’t just about complying with regulations; it’s about ensuring the health and safety of every individual involved.
Each and every person on a production contributes to the magic of storytelling, and their safety must never be compromised. Behind every scene lies a team of dedicated professionals who deserve to work in environments free from potential harm.
It’s time we recognise the paramount importance of health and safety in our industry and commit to prioritising it at every stage of production. After all, a safe and healthy crew means a thriving production, and that’s a story worth telling.
Our Commitment
Our focus on raising safety standards in Film, TV and Events is unwavering.

These tools are free. Forever. And you don’t need to be a First Option client.
The Catch?
There isn’t one.

Setting up an account is free and only takes a few moments. Plus, anyone can use our Safety Culture Assessment which can give you an idea of how you rank against best practice on a number of different stages of production.
