10.1(1.2)

Explain safe working practices for a specific job role in the Creative Media sector

As a member of the production team, keeping risk assessments in mind is always a good idea. 
If any heavy lifting is going to occur or handling electrical equipment, creating a risk assessment is required to ensure that risks are kept to a minimum and to ensure that if an accident were to happen, we would already know what to do instantly.
Production teams work and communicate through phones and computers. When you are working around electricity every day, it is easy to forget the high risks that come with it. 
As a member of the production team, making sure you are acting maturely and sensibly around it is key, as it decreases the risks of accidents. 
For example, having no liquids around your computer or laptop and not running around the office where there’s a chance of something getting knocked over. 


As a Production Assistant, I also have the responsibility of letting people know if i have recognised a hazard to a senior member of staff. By flagging this to my employer, they will be able to inform me should anything action need to be taken.
