As a promoter, you are well aware of many things which can negatively affect the profitability, schedule or success of your event, concert or festival. An effective health and safety management program can help ensure a smooth, trouble free project by:

• Scouting/selecting locations best suited for a healthy and safe project
• Thorough assessment review of design and construction of performance areas
• Crowd control, seating and evacuation planning
• Establishing effective first aid and medical services
• Review of talent creative plans for any hint of trouble
• Assess pyrotechnics and other potentially harmful special effects
• Onsite health and safety management for your event
• Meeting “Green” objectives

Hiring an independent health and safety consultant may be the most important step to protecting your crew, performers and potential third parties (the public at large: attendees and innocent persons living in close proximity to your event). Utilizing stunt coordinators, pyrotechnic technicians, medical technicians as health/safety consultants should be avoided:

• They may not be trained in Health/Safety Management.
• A conflict of interest may exist: if a health/safety issue surfaces, that conflict may impair their decision making process.
• They may be reluctant to say “No” if it means upsetting another business relationship where they depend for future work.
