Are Gym-Employed Trainers Covered by Their Gym’s Insurance Policy?

Trainers who are traditional employees of gyms and fitness centers might receive insurance coverage from their gym. Whether a gym’s coverage applies in these situations depends on the particular details of a policy, and not all policies do provide coverage.

Additionally, any coverage that is provided by a gym likely won’t extend to work that’s done outside the scope of employment. Side gigs and private training aren’t likely to be covered.

Trainers who are independent contractors for gyms and fitness centers are less likely to be covered by a gym’s insurance policy. 

If trainers do side work, do private training or are independent contractors, purchasing a personal training insurance policy likely would be prudent. An insurance agent who specializes in these policies can help find suitable coverage that’s specific to a trainer’s situation.

(Most trainers who are employees will receive a W-2 at year's end, and those who are independent contractors will normally get a 1099 tax document.)

What Coverages Are Available Through Personal Training Insurance Policies?

The coverages that personal training insurance policies provide tend to be focused on protecting against liability risks. Some liability coverages that a particular policy might offer include:

An agent will be able to assist with finding coverage.

How Much Are Premiums for Personal Training Policies?

Personal training policies’ premiums are based on many factors and thus vary. A trainer’s location, the scope of work, past claims history and other factors will commonly influence the cost. Even with variance among premiums, however, these policies tend to be affordable.

Comparing policy options with an independent insurance agent is an easy way to check how much insurance will cost in a given situation. Independent agents are able to compare quotes from multiple insurance companies since they aren’t connected to any one insurer.
