Problem with work, pay or contracts?

If you have an issue at work, contact the Equity official for your sector or area listed below. You can talk to us about issues including bullying and harassment, discrimination, issues with employers and potential employers, the casting process, health and safety and pay and contracts.

Every conversation you have with Equity is confidential - whether it's asking for advice and support or reporting bad practice. We'll only take forward your case if you choose to and you don't need to be working on an Equity contract to get help.
