How A Lack Of Conduct Standards Affects Behaviour On A Film Set

Even after a monumental #MeToo movement took place, allegations about bullying and harassment on set continue to surface.

Why so?

There are two main reasons.

• The Lack Of Conduct Standards On Set:

In the previous post our research pointed out that one of the policies-related recurring issues is crew and talent do not know that such standards exist.

There is a reaction to the аftermath of those issues. However, there is a need for a tool to prevent those issues from even happening in the first place.

• No Clear Response Mechanism In Place:

The absence of such a crucial step creates an environment where unacceptable behaviour persists, impacting set morale and overall productivity. Productions invest in creating standards, yet those policies fail without an independent party creating a safe space to prevent serious predicaments.

We take it a step further—our customised and anonymous 'Eyes On Production' survey translates even subtle behavioural nuance into actionable data.

At Talent Trust, we specialise in amplifying the 'S'—Social—component of your ESG efforts through strategic data-driven insights. By understanding and addressing the dynamics of workplace safety, satisfaction and engagement, we help production companies and brands not only enhance performance but also retain their valuable workforce.
