Employee welfare firm the Safety Pass Alliance (SPA) has launched an initiative to help prevent accidents in the live entertainment industry – just in time for the summer festival season.
The SPA’s ‘safety passport’ is aimed at rental companies and freelance subcontractors who install sound, lighting and video equipment at live events.
The initiative includes a single-day training course, which follows guidelines from the Health and Safety Executive and covers industry specific regulations such as noise at work and working at heights.
