Policy Limits

There are two primary types of liability insurance: professional and general liability insurance. They are both necessary for every fitness professional.

  • General liability insurance: Commonly known as a "slip and fall" insurance policy, general liability insurance covers injuries that occur on your premises that are not directly related to your professional services. For instance, if a client trips and breaks their ankle on an uneven surface in your gym, this type of insurance would protect you from the resulting claims.

  • Professional liability insurance: Also known as malpractice insurance, professional liability insurance protects you against claims arising from actual or alleged professional negligence. For example, if a client drops a barbell and injures themselves during a workout under your supervision, this coverage would protect you.

These coverages protect professionals from liability for non-physical injuries or damages resulting from actions like defamation, false arrest, invasion of privacy, and copyright/trademark infringement in advertising and marketing. This is an additional coverage type that is included in an IFG policy.

Identity theft is an increasing threat. Identity Theft Protection assists in covering the expenses related to recovering your identity should it be compromised, ensuring your personal and professional identities are secure. This is an additional coverage type that is included in an IFG policy.
