SCENE 01 / HEALTH SAFETY COMPLIANCE

Health & Safety Compliance

Expert safety protocols and compliance coordination for productions in Austria.

Scroll

Here is how this works in practice. Health and safety compliance makes sure shoots in Austria meet legal workplace safety needs under the ArbeitnehmerInnenschutzgesetz (Employee Protection Act). This covers risk assessments, safety briefings, emergency procedures, protective gear, stunt safety protocols, and ongoing tracking — from studio stages in Vienna to location shoots in Salzburg — to protect each person on set from preventable harm.

Here is the short of it. We set up health and safety compliance by conducting risk assessments, preparing safety records, and sourcing qualified safety staff OK'd by Arbeitsinspektorat (Labour Inspectorate). Our team makes sure your shoot meets all Austrian occupational health rules and Austrian Film Institute industry standards, keeping your cast and crew covered across each location in Austria.

On Location

On-set safety in Austria is governed by federal occupational-safety law and overseen by the Arbeitsinspektorat, with additional risk for stunts, aerial work, and alpine and water shoots.

Here is how this works in practice. We set up health and safety compliance for shoots across Austria, conducting risk assessments, preparing safety records, and sourcing qualified safety staff for each department. Our team builds protocols that satisfy Austrian occupational-safety law and the standards enforced by the Arbeitsinspektorat, the labour inspectorate, covering safety briefings, emergency procedures, protective gear, and pro plans for stunts, special effects, and working at height.

Here is the breakdown. For shoots that move between Vienna studio stages and demanding locations, we adapt safety regimes to the hazard profile of each setting, whether that means crowd-management plans in the Historic Centre of Vienna or cold-weather and avalanche-aware procedures for high-altitude units in Tyrol and Salzburg.

We keep the records that insurers, completion-bond providers, and funders expect on each production.

Here is the short of it. Austria's terrain and production mix make safety planning specific involved. The country's signature locations bring distinct risks: the Tyrolean Alps, the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, and glacier shoots near Sölden demand altitude, cold, and avalanche awareness. While water work on the Wörthersee, the Neusiedlersee, or the Salzkammergut lakes needs marine-safety provision.

Here is the breakdown. Aerial photography is covered separately through Austro Control under EU EASA rules. The Föhn wind and the December-to-March winter season add weather-driven hazards to exterior schedules. Austria's skilled production sector, from ORF drama to global service work, has well-developed safety practices, and studios such as Rosenhügel Filmstudios give controlled environments for higher-risk sequences.

We draw on this to keep cast and crew covered at each location.
