Safety Officers
Certified safety pros making sure crew protection and regulatory compliance across Polish shoots.
Here is how this works in practice. Film production safety in Poland is ruled by Polish Labour Code safety provisions, with enforcement through the National Labour Inspectorate (PIP). Productions face location-specific hazards including cold winters, historic building preservation needs, and industrial heritage site filming. A qualified safety officer makes sure compliance with local law while managing the specific risks of stunts, pyrotechnics, water work, and the site-level challenges unique to filming in Poland.
Here is the short of it. Through NeedAFixer, we connect you with safety officers who hold recognised Polish safety certifications and know the specific demands of film production. Our network has pros skilled with action sequences at Alvernia Studios and Łódź Film Studios and the safety challenges of the varied filming environments that Poland gives to global shoots.

On Location
A Polish safety officer ensures a production meets the workplace-safety requirements of the Polish Labour Code, managing risk across stunts, locations and crowd work.
Here is how this works in practice. We give safety officers who keep Polish shoots compliant and safe. Our safety officers carry out risk assessments, prepare method statements for hazardous sequences, brief crew and cast, and watch stunt, action, height, water and crowd work on set. They set up with the first AD, the medical team and special-effects departments, manage the safety conditions attached to permits secured through Film Commission Poland, and make sure the production meets the workplace-safety provisions of the Polish Labour Code. For global shoots, the safety officer is the on-set authority who integrates a visiting production's safety expectations with Polish legal needs.
Here is the short of it. Poland has a clear and well-set up framework for workplace safety. The Polish Labour Code and the country's occupational health-and-safety law set defined obligations for employers and shoots. A skilled film-safety community has grown alongside the global service work drawn by the 30% PISF cash rebates. Safety officers here are familiar with the demands of feature, series and commercial work, accustomed to the risk profiles of period and war-drama crowd days, stunt sequences and remote-location shoots in the Tatra Mountains and on the Baltic coast, and able to brief multinational crews in both Polish and English.
