REPs Insurance

All members of the Register at levels 2, 3 and 4 are required to hold adequate civil liability insurance which covers (your) legal liability for death, injury or illness to others and loss of, or damage to, third party property. Validation is confirmed at the time of first registration and then at every annual re-registration.

If you are in full-time employment your employer should countersign your registration or re-registration form confirming that you are fully insured under their policy. No further individual public liability insurance cover is required.

However, if you are self-employed, or undertake any work where you are not under direct contract with an employer (and therefore covered by their policy) you must either:

• Provide a copy of the details of your current insurance cover, or,
• Take the optional public liability insurance which is detailed in this leaflet, Including making full payment

The Register requires you to hold an annual liability policy with a minimum indemnity of £5,000,000. If the limit of indemnity applies in the aggregate, then the minimum requirement is £10,000,000.

The REPs Insurance Scheme offers the option of public liability limit of either £5million or £10million, and this cover includes liability arising from advice provided and products liability. Any policy purchased from 1st October 2009 will also include cover for Personal Accidents.

The policy will cover a registered fitness professional to instruct in any area (in the context of exercise and fitness) in which they hold an approved qualification. The policy will not cover the following:

• Sports Coaching
• Dance
• Physiotherapy
• Thai Chi
• Martial Arts
• Boxing
