The Australian screen production industry has published “Covid-Safe Guidelines” to help get the industry back to work, making film and TV shows.
Each production will need to draw up its own personalized Covid-safe production plan that identifies the specific control measures needed to mitigate the risks that the virus poses to its personnel, given each production’s location, scale and content. The guidelines
The guidelines detail both mandatory controls, informed by the latest government medical advice and states’ work health and safety legislation. They also specify a detailed, department-by-department range of control measures that each production can draw on to create its plan. This covers guidance on the number of people on set, shooting in close proximity, use of personal protective equipment, hygiene control measures, medical advice, and travel and transport.
The guidelines were drawn up by an industry-wide task force in consultation with the federal health department and global law firm Clyde & Co.
