Production/Development Facilities Distribution Exhibition Total SIZE AND SHAPE OF THE WORKFORCE Although there is inadequate information about the film industry workforce as outlined in the section (Collecting and Analysing Information) some basic data exists which is detailed below. The intention is to build on this current information. Total employment by sector Total employment in the UK film industry comprises around 34,000 people. The largest sector is exhibition with about 16,000 employees. Just over 9,000 people were estimated to have worked on productions with shoot dates in the calendar year 2002. Slightly fewer were <strong>report</strong>ed as working in facilities, which includes studio/equipment hire, special physical effects and post-production, in 2002 by Skillset’s Census (this includes some people doing work for TV, but excludes freelancers not working on the day of the survey). Around 467 people are recorded as working in the distribution sector. Data in all tables has been rounded to the nearest 10 individuals, except data on the distribution sector, as the numbers employed are relatively low. All percentages have been rounded to the nearest whole number, except figures on representation of disabled people, which are shown to one decimal place. Representation of women stands at about 40% of the total workforce, ranging from 23% in facilities to 50% in distribution and exhibition. The figures on the next page (production/development sector) reveal major differences between departments in their occupation of women. Around 12% of the workforce are ethnic minorities (excluding production/development), but fewer in distribution and exhibition. Less than 1% of the total workforce in all sectors is disabled. 55 Total % Women % Ethnic Minorities % Disabled 9,050 8,200 467 16,000 33,715 36 23 50 50 40 Not available* Not available* *At present, data are not available on representation of ethnic minorities and disabled people in the production/development sector, but will be published late in 2003 on completion of the survey. 5 3 16 12 0.8 0.0 0.5 0.6
