Long working hours and broken turnaround have been a long-standing issue within the film and TV industry - long days often push into rest periods, reducing the time crews have to recover between working days. Proper turnaround needs to be adhered to. It’s a matter of safety. Crew should have at least 11 hours of rest from wrap to call. Very occasionally, longer days going into overtime can happen, but this should be rare - not a regular occurrence or built into the schedule. This can lead to crew becoming overtired and that’s when accidents, or worse, can happen. It’s important to know your rights by checking the Pact–Bectu agreements, which are in place to protect you. As part of the Mark Milsome Foundation’s Film & TV Online Safety Passport course - a ScreenSkills-certified, PSA1 qualification valid for 5 years - we explore why managing working hours and ensuring proper welfare isn’t just a matter of comfort, it’s a matter of safety. The clip above, from Chapter 3 of our H&S course on working hours and welfare, highlights key information from the Pact–Bectu agreements, factors that directly impact turnaround and crew fatigue. We encourage anyone who hasn’t taken the course to do so, to ensure your own safety and the safety of those around you.

#throwbackthursday 🎬 Throwing it back to one of our important safety tips we shared last year. Nothing is more important than the health and safety of everyone working on a production. All cast and crew deserve to feel safe at work. Tip #1: SPEAK UP if you feel unsafe or are being overworked. Speaking up can protect not only yourself, but the people around you. Let’s keep the conversation going and continue working together to build a safer industry 🙏 #TBT #markmilsomefoundation #healthandsafetyatwork
