Fitness Consultant & Instructor Insurance

Protecting your fitness trainer business

Being a personal trainer is rewarding work. Helping people achieve their goals, lose weight and get fit requires patience and positivity, but things can go wrong meaning you need comprehensive fitness consultant insurance in case something unexpected happens.

Fitness instructors are exposed to a number of risks, whether it’s a claim against you for injury, negligence or wrongful advice. You need protection that’s tailored to you and your business activities. So what are some of the risks involved and which covers might be most relevant to you?

Liability cover

Liability insurance is a key aspect of your personal trainer insurance to protect you against potentially large compensation claims should someone injure themselves during training. There are a number of instances that could trigger these claims; sports injuries, slips trips and falls, or even a member of the public tripping over your equipment. Claims made against you by clients or other third parties would typically be covered under public liability insurance which would take care of the associated medical and legal expenses, as well as any compensation you may be liable for.

Employers’ liability can protect you in similar circumstances if you employ staff. Whether you’re doing classes outside together or have your own individual speciality; employers’ liability is required by law to protect you for accidents your staff may suffer.  As careful as you may be, accidents can still happen when you least expect it and this cover can protect you and your staff should something go wrong.

Equipment cover

If you’re a mobile instructor insuring your equipment is crucial. Without your equipment you may struggle to complete your day to day activities. Whether its kettlebells, boot camps, aerobics or boxercise; fitness equipment does not come cheap so this should be a key consideration.

Personal Accident Cover

Personal trainers may experience an injury at some point. Whether these are minor or major injuries they could impact on your ability to work. Personal accident cover can protect you against a number of eventualities including loss of sight, temporary or total disablement and can give you peace of mind in case you have an accident that leaves you unable to work. This invaluable cover typically provides a weekly income until you are able to return to work to help tide you over financially.
