Why do fitness professionals need insurance?

If you provide services as a personal trainer or fitness professional, there are potential risks that you could face, such as claims of professional negligence, poor advice or injuries to third-parties. As a self-employed professional, Ollo’s insurance policies are designed to protect your financial and professional assets against unforeseen circumstances to ensure your business can remain operating and you can focus on helping your client achieve their goals.

What fitness professionals’ insurance can cover?

Our fitness professionals’ insurance covers your legal costs and expenses in defending a claim, and any compensation or costs that may subsequently be awarded (please check your policy terms and conditions for full conditions), following:

What can be covered:
Injuries caused to third-parties during business activities – such as a client tripping over your equipment and claiming for compensation
Contract disputes – such as pursuing a client when they have breached a contract
Temporary total disablement – such as an injury that prevents you from working temporarily
Permanent total disablement – such as an injury that prevents you from working permanently
What cannot be covered:
Deliberate or reckless acts you commit – for example, public liability insurance would not cover if yourself or an employee caused deliberate harm to a member of the public
Existing legal issues – for example, legal expenses insurance does not cover the costs of any legal issues which already exist when you secure the insurance
Accidents outside of work – for example, occupational personal accident insurance would not cover you if you were unable to work due to an accident outside of work
