The BFI, BAFTA albert and ScreenSkills have launched the UK’s first National Occupational Standards and Skills Checklists to standardise the skills of sustainable production roles on set.
The Standards and Checklists were developed in consultation with crew and industry bodies working on productions in the UK and abroad, and will provide a framework to train a skilled crew base for film and TV productions.
The Standards will be used to upskill production workforce focused on sustainability, and create defined routes into sustainability roles within the industry.
The Skills Checklists set out a three-tiered sustainability department and are a practical recruitment and training tool for producers looking to hire and upskill sustainability leads, coordinators, and assistants. They can also be used by crew to understand the skills and responsibilities expected in their roles.
Both the National Occupational Standards and the Skills Checklists will be accessible via the ScreenSkills website and will be free for anyone to use.
