01 / Safety / New Zealand + Worldwide
Production safety and risk management
Arc provides production safety officers and health and safety consultants for film, television, commercials and other demanding projects. Based in New Zealand and working worldwide, we help teams identify hazards, put practical controls in place and keep oversight on site while the work happens.
What we provide
Safety in detail.
- 01
Production Safety Officers
Our Production Safety Officers support film, TV and commercial productions from pre-production through to wrap. They work alongside departments to understand what each scene or task involves, then help the production plan and carry out that work safely without losing sight of the schedule.
- 02
Daily briefings and on-site monitoring
Safety briefings give cast and crew a clear picture of the day's hazards, controls and emergency arrangements. On site, our officers monitor conditions as they change, from weather and terrain to equipment and crowd movement, and respond to issues as they arise.
- 03
Risk assessments, safety plans and location reports
We prepare risk assessments and production safety plans tailored to the project, and carry out scouting and location reports so hazards, access, emergency routes and site-specific constraints are understood before the crew arrives.
- 04
Water safety and IRB support
For work on or near water, Arc can deploy inflatable rescue boat (IRB) water safety, lifeguards and safety divers. Support is matched to the location and activity, whether that is a surf break, a lake, a river or an open-water scene.
- 05
Rope access and rescue
Rope access and rescue capability supports work at height and in technical terrain, such as cliff edges, structures and steep ground, with rescue planning in place before people are committed to the task.
- 06
Aviation safety coordination
Where helicopters or other aircraft are part of the work, we help coordinate aviation safety so flight operations, ground crews and the wider production are aligned on procedures and responsibilities.
- 07
Health and safety consulting
Beyond production work, Arc offers health and safety consulting and risk workshops for organisations operating in challenging environments, helping teams build practical systems that fit the way they actually work.
