Covering all aspects of production safety, this is an invaluable
reference guide for the independent programme maker, freelancer,
manager, producer, tutor and student filmmaker. Robin Small
identifies all the major risks and gives advice on how to control
and/or eliminate them. Each hazard section includes useful
references to the relevant legislation, documents and licences, as
well as addresses of organisations for essential advice and
recommended further reading. An appendix lists samples of vital
certificates, with visual references provided on
www.focalpress.com.
Important information about hazard identification, risk assessment
and safety policy is provided in the chapters covering legislation,

insurance. Particular hazards are then split into individual
sections for ease of reference. These hazards include:
Asbestos

The appendices provide comprehensive contact information for UK and
