Legal Guidance for Employers — Including Film and Production Sets
Employers are responsible for maintaining a safe work environment, a crucial obligation that should never be taken lightly. However, safety-related complaints or incidents can quickly spiral into legal risks, agency inquiries, and significant operational disruptions. Whether an employee raises legitimate concerns about hazardous conditions, a workplace accident unexpectedly occurs, or your business finds itself the focus of a safety-related investigation, the stakes can be high.
In such scenarios, having experienced legal counsel on your side is not just beneficial; it’s essential for navigating the complex legal landscape that surrounds workplace safety. Proper legal guidance can help mitigate potential liabilities and ensure that your organization adheres to all safety regulations, ultimately safeguarding both employees and the business itself.

When do workplace safety issues become legal matters?
Claims may arise after workplace accidents, OSHA complaints, whistleblower reports, or allegations that an employer failed to provide a reasonably safe working environment. Even with preventive measures in place, businesses may come under scrutiny for how they document, communicate, and enforce safety policies.
At DHDuerr Law LLC, we have guided clients through safety-related disputes across a wide range of industries — including high-risk environments like film and television production sets. These fast-paced, nontraditional workplaces often pose unique safety challenges involving stunts, set construction, rigging, and equipment use. Our understanding of production-specific risks helps us offer practical legal solutions that align with industry realities while keeping compliance at the forefront.
These matters can lead to inspections, investigations, and potential penalties, especially if there are gaps in training, reporting procedures, or post-incident protocols. For employers, the legal risk often lies not just in what happened, but in how the organization prepared and responded.
Proactive Strategies to Improve Safety Compliance
Workplace safety isn’t just about reacting to incidents — it’s about creating a culture and process that prevent them. Employers that regularly review training practices, safety protocols, and internal reporting procedures are in a stronger position when questions arise.
By identifying gaps in safety policies, reinforcing defensible procedures, and addressing risks before they escalate, businesses can stay ahead of compliance issues. With the right support, safety becomes a strength, not a legal risk.
