Your legal obligation
What the law requires from self-employed magicians and entertainers
Self-employed magicians and entertainers work at events with audiences, using props, equipment, and in some cases chemical effects to create their performances. The risk assessment needs to cover the specific equipment used in performances, audience management during shows, and the event environments in which the entertainment is delivered. || Where chemical effects are used - flash paper, smoke machines, or other performance chemicals - COSHH documentation is required and these substances need specific assessment. The management of close-up magic with audience members also creates risk considerations around consent and close physical proximity. || A risk assessment, health and safety policy, and fire safety documentation are all required for a self-employed entertainer.
The real problem
Magicians and entertainers often overlook health and safety documentation because their work appears low-risk
The performance nature of entertainment can make compliance requirements feel remote. But working at events with audiences, using performance equipment, and managing crowd interactions all create genuine risk assessment requirements. CompliantDocs generates documentation from your answers about your act and the events you work at.
