Industry-Wide Labor-Management Safety Committee

The Industry-Wide Labor-Management Safety Committee was formed in
1965, which was actually five years prior to the creation of OSHA. The com-
mittee is comprised of the IATSE and its West Coast Local Unions, the Basic
Crafts Unions, SAG-AFTRA, the Directors Guild of America, and representa-
tives of the Producers.

This safety-focused group meets monthly to discuss a wide range of topics
that affect the industry and is also tasked with developing industry guidance
through its widely read Safety Bulletins, Guidelines and Informational Fact
Sheets, which have become foundational tools for building a culture of safety
in the motion picture and television industry.

Contract Services serves as the administrator of this committee, and through our
Production Affairs and Safety Department we house the Management Co-Chair.
