Ensuring that everyone (individuals and organisations) participating in productions provides a safe and respectful environment for all those involved - free from any form of bullying, harassment or discrimination.
Advertising productions bring together temporary teams of both staff and freelance individuals from several organisations in circumstances that can be unusual and intense.
Everyone involved in our productions is entitled to a professional setting where they can do their best work.
Everyone (meaning individuals and organisations) participating in productions should always provide a safe and respectful environment for all those involved - free from any form of bullying, harassment or discrimination.
Organisations entering into productions should ensure that their own policies and procedures are clearly communicated and robust, enabling them to deal promptly and effectively with complaints raised by any individuals working on productions against other individuals for whom those organisations have responsibility. They should consider industry dignity at work initiatives, such as, for example, the #timeTo Code of Conduct.
Initiatives like #timeTo are supported by the APA, the IPA, and ISBA.
Adherence to, and awareness of industry conduct initiatives could, as appropriate, be bound into productions through the PIBS Agreement, PPM documents and call sheets.
