Health & Safety Compliance

Here is how this works in practice. Health and safety compliance on Italian sets is set by Decreto Legislativo 81/2008 — the Testo Unico sulla Sicurezza — and enforced by INAIL, the national workplace safety authority, in coordination with regional ASL (Azienda Sanitaria Locale) offices. Every production filming in Italy, from a single-camera commercial in Brera to a multi-unit feature at Cinecittà, must produce a documento di valutazione dei rischi, appoint an RSPP (responsabile servizio prevenzione e protezione), and show competent oversight for any stunt, pyrotechnic, water, height, or vehicle action.

Here is the short of it. Our compliance coordinators draft the DVR, supply qualified RSPP and medico competente personnel, and stage pre-production walk-throughs of every location — whether that is a Sicilian baroque piazza, an Apulian masseria, a Dolomites ridge, or a Cinque Terre cliff path. The result is a documented safety case that survives inspection by an ASL officer or an INAIL audit. A set culture that crew members from Rome to Palermo recognise immediately as professional.

Here is the breakdown. Our process begins with a script breakdown that flags every high-risk sequence, followed by a risk register matched against the activities and locations on the shooting schedule. We set up medical standby through accredited providers across Rome, Milan, and Naples, brief department heads on PPE protocols and emergency procedures during prep, and run daily safety check-ins once cameras roll. Stunt coordinators and SFX supervisors are credentialed under the relevant CCNL Cinema Audiovisivo categories and insured for Italian production.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Digital incident-reporting sites keep records audit-ready throughout the schedule, with anonymised data feeding into wrap reports for production insurers. Our 24/7 emergency response sets up with Italian hospitals, the 118 ambulance service, and the Polizia di Stato when needed — a track record of zero production shutdowns across more than two hundred Italian shoots gives clients the confidence to push creative drive without surrendering protection.
