Get Volunteer Waiver

Waivers are written agreements that say the sponsor of an activity will not be liable for harm suffered by participants. Although waivers are primarily legal tools, they also serve an educational purpose by making people think about the potential risks of an activity.

When creating a waiver form, there are a few key elements that you will need to include: The name of the business and the event. A description of the risks involved in the event. A release of liability statement. The signature of the customer or participant.

An example of a written waiver is a disclaimer, which becomes a waiver when accepted. When the right to hold a person liable through a lawsuit is waived, the waiver may be called an exculpatory clause, liability waiver, legal release, or hold harmless clause.

I hereby consent to receive medical treatment that may be deemed advisable in the event of injury, accident, and/or illness during this event and acknowledge understanding that I am responsible for any charges or financial obligations arising from such treatment.

Activity risks: The waiver should describe in detail the risks surrounding the activity or service provided by your company. The participant must be made fully informed of potential risks before they can take part in the activity. They must also be made aware that your company will not cover their insurance costs.

Volunteer agrees to follow the supervision and direction of any personnel, employee, or volunteer, to whom volunteer has been assigned to perform services, and to participate in any training required by the charity in order to perform the voluntary services.
