The BFI and BAFTA launch practical employer action list backed by over 40 organisations across film, games and television including new endorsement from The Casting Directors’ Guild, Coalition for Change and talent agencies.

Dame Heather Rabbatts, Chair of TIME’S UP UK, said:

"It was just over three years ago when TIME’S UP UK, in collaboration with BFI and BAFTA, launched the bullying, harassment and racism principles and guidance for industry calling out unacceptable behaviour. Three years on, while awareness has been heightened, we need these resources more than ever and so we welcome the action list released today to bolster our armoury to help eradicate these toxic practices. At TIME’S UP UK we are soon to release a series of safety guides for people working in the entertainment industry, free resources to empower arts and entertainment workers with information about their rights, industry-specific norms, and practical ways they can advocate for themselves and their safety and help people understand that no matter your situation, you have options."
