My brother works in the film industry and is active in the union @IATSE, so I asked him about Alec Baldwin being given a loaded gun and accidentally killing director of photography (DP) Halyna Hutchins.
He explained that it's a result of union busting, scabs, and negligence

Hours before Alec Baldwin accidentally shot and killed a cinematographer, camera crew workers walked off the set to protest bad working conditions
