Unit 01 – Awareness of Employment within the Creative Media Sector

In order to achieve the standards set out in the assessment criteria, you are requied to cover the following topics in a blog. Please use the title...


Unit 01 – Awareness of Employment within the Creative Media Sector

Describe the main types of employment status within the Creative Media sector

What does this mean? It is not asking you to list the types of jobs available within the Creative Media sector, it is asking you about the different types of employment status.
  • Research the terms - full time / fixed contract / part time / freelance, and describe the differences between each type of employment status.
  • How do they affect you as an employee?
  • What benefits do you get from one type of employment compared to another?
  • How secure are each of these types of employment compared to each other?
  • Is there any element of flexibility in the terms of the contract?
  • How do you pay tax and National Insurance? Is this taken from your salary or are you responsible for paying your own?
  • Compile a list of graphic design and web design companies in the north east.
  • List the skills required for these specific roles.
  • Indicate how you would apply for a specific job within the Creative Media sector and what skills would be needed in order to do this successfully.
Use the internet to aid you in the completion of this task.
