The film sector’s unified approach has become a complicated patchwork of policies and guidelines that are causing acrimony among workers

safety while other sectors struggled to recover. Its success was in part owing to the co-operative nature of filmmaking. Wardrobe, set decoration, lighting, camera and talent – the departments that collaborate to bring a production to life – applied that same approach to health and safety. It also helped that productions spared no expense in finding solutions, from creating entirely new positions for COVID-19 compliance officers to footing the bill for weekly tests.

Diligent mask wearing, social distancing, daily health screenings and robust testing regimens became the norm. Lewis says it was expensive and labour intensive, but effective. “We had incredibly low infection rates.”

In Canada, employers such as studios and production companies can adopt even stricter protocols, as long as they adhere to provincial human rights and privacy laws. Making matters more complicated, the agreement includes provisions where regional considerations like surging COVID-19 related hospitalizations can trigger pivot points for production rules.
