Document background

The Filming Risk Assessment Form is a mandatory safety document required under South African law, particularly the Occupational Health and Safety Act No. 85 of 1993, for any professional filming activities. This document must be completed before commencing any filming or recording activities that may pose risks to cast, crew, or the public. It encompasses comprehensive risk evaluation across various aspects of production, including equipment usage, location hazards, special effects, and environmental conditions. The form serves as both a legal requirement and a practical tool for production teams to identify potential hazards, implement control measures, and establish emergency procedures. It needs to be updated for each new location or when significant changes occur in the filming conditions.
