Safety Officers

Here is what that looks like on the ground. We supply safety officers who manage on-set risk for shoots in Turkey, assessing hazards, writing risk plans and running the safe execution of stunts, action sequences, water work and crowd scenes. Our team places safety officers who brief crew, monitor compliance through the shoot and set up closely with the assistant directors, stunt teams and set medics. Because Turkish shoots range from central Istanbul to remote eastern locations, the safety officers we engage plan for heat, terrain and access conditions, advise on the needs that apply to drone and special-effects work, and integrate safety planning into schedules budgeted in Turkish lira against the up-to-30% cash rebates.

Here is how the picture comes together. Safety on Turkish sets operates within the country's occupational health and safety legislation. Productions are expected to manage risk methodically across each department. Drone operations are covered by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (Sivil Havacılık Genel Müdürlüğü / SHGM). This a safety officer factors into aerial sequences, while heritage and religious sites bring their own access and conduct conditions. The scale of the 'dizi' industry has built safety pros skilled in steady production and in the hazards of large historical-epic shoots involving horses, pyrotechnics and crowds. Coordinated with set-medical provision, a Turkish safety officer keeps a production both compliant and genuinely safe.
