  • On 8th December 2021 Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland (Screen Ireland) launched a Health and Safety Guide to provide guidance on health and safety for all professionals working in film and television. The document covers the key health and safety legislation, outlines best practice, and directs users to other relevant bodies and resources, including risk assessment templates.
  • The guide aims to promote a safer and healthier workplace environment for those working in the Irish screen sector by raising the standard of awareness around safe working practices, as well as providing practical advice for employers and crew members across all departments. It is also intended to serve as a resource for new entrants to the sector to build their confidence around safety on set.
