Judges shake up film industry; HOW IT UNFOLDED
2005
Overview
A Supreme Court decision yesterday ruled that former model maker and technician James Bryson was an employee of The Lord of the Rings production company Three Foot Six and not a self-employed contractor when he was made redundant in 2001. The ruling allows Mr Bryson to pursue a personal grievance case against Three Foot Six. While Mr Bryson's case went through the courts during the past three years, New Zealand's film industry feared any judgment in his favour could mean it would cost more to hire cast and crews and harder to fire them. Most people in the film industry, which employs about 12,000 people, are independent contractors. January 2003: Bryson wants to raise a personal grievance case against Three Foot Six. He can do so only if the Employment Relations Authority deems him an employee instead of a self- employed contractor. The authority rules that he is a contractor. Bryson appeals.
