HR in TV and Film production is a fairly new concept that can be challenging to navigate, particularly in an age where Production companies want to get it right the first time. However, the reward for working in this space, and upskilling people that manage people is paying dividends. 

Much of the industry is built around the use of freelancers and independent contractors rather than the traditional employer-employee relationship found in more traditional industries. Changing the contractual relationship has legal and tax ramifications. So, production companies, regardless of size, must find the balance around creating healthy workplaces without changing the contractual relationship into one of employer and employee.
