While Filming in the gym there will be a number of hazards with regard
to the equipment.

The floor could be slightly uneven due to the age of the building. Wet
floors could also pose of problem. We will have to make sure that both
cast and crew are aware of the hazards.
The gym itself is a very old building so the electrical working is unlikely
to be up a reliable standard.

If the cast or crew are being targeted by any external or internal threats
whilst the filming occurs alert the teacher at the earliest opportunity.

should wear sensible clothing.
If its too hot ensure plenty of drinks are provided to ensure that people
do not become dehydrated.

Details Over

The three columns (L,S,R) are for assessing the level or degree of risk. The first (L) is for an assessment of the likelihood of the hazard taking place, the second (S) for the
severity of the hazard, both based on the following:(L)

LIKELIHOOD

(S)

SEVERITY OF HAZARD

(R) RISK LEVEL is product of Likelihood and Severity

(LxS).
1. Hazard exists very infrequently; limited numbers
exposed
2. Likely to occur; hazard exists intermittently or occurs
occasionally
3. Likely to occur soon; permanent hazard or occurs
daily / repeatedly; many may be exposed

1.
2.
3.

Could cause minor injury only

Could cause major injury/3 day or more absence
Could cause fatality/severe injury

Very high risks score 6 or 9

Moderate risks score 3 or 4
Low priority risks score 1 or 2
VERY HIGH RISKS NEED IMMEDIATE ACTION

all the people that are involved. By assuring both cast and crew are paying full attention to the surroundings will significantly reduce the likely
hood of an unnecessary accidents. For example when walking around the gym both cast and crew will have to take special care due to the
specialist equipment around the gym.

FURTHER PREVENTATIVE MEASURES NEEDED. If a crewmember notices any hazards that can be prevented
before filming, they should do so. Both crewmembers and cast should be aware of personal space and act in a
professional manner when on set

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT REQUIRED: If filming in a dangerous location florescent jackets will be
expected to worn by all crewmembers.
Also if any filming is to be recorded at night everyone on site who is not starring in the footage will be required to
wear a florescent jacket to make sure that they are visible.

The crewmembers will all need to be trained in using the cameras as well as any other electrical equipment that will be used during filming.
Actors will need a brief description on the script.

MONITORING: Who is to monitor whether or not controls are in place and how? Each crewmember will be expected to check that all of
the previous safety procedures are in place.

COMMUNICATION: Who needs to be informed about risks and control measures and by what means?
Everyone, crewmembers in filming/ editing and the cast will all need to be aware of the safety precautions that will be taking whilst filming our
documentary.
This will be carried out via a safety briefing at each location before the start of any filming, this will make sure that both the crew and cast are
