This learning path takes you through the regulatory framework for film, TV and music production businesses in order. Each step links to a guide that covers one part of your obligations. Follow them in sequence to build a complete picture.
Step 1 — Work out which rules apply
Identify whether your business falls under the universal workplace duties alone or also triggers sector-specific licensing, classification or rights duties.
Step 2 — Set up your workplace safely
Work through the five universal duties every film, TV and music production business must meet: health and safety, fire safety, employers' liability insurance, equality and data protection.
Step 3 — Meet your sector-specific duties
If you work with child performers, supply classified video works, exhibit films to the public, create copyright-protected content or license music rights, follow this guide for the duties that apply on top of the universal foundation.
Step 4 — Confirm you are compliant
Work through the compliance checklist to confirm every obligation is in place before you begin or continue operating.
