Then you are looking at difference of UK and EU Law and how well they covered themselves.
Plus insurers would cover if their requirements are met.....as 24 Hour Gyms are increasing..although maybe there manned?
You cannot contract out of liability in T&C's for injury, it's a common mistake that many have fallen foul of.
You are also contravening health & safety at work regulations as wel and you cannot contract out on those.
not even for a Waiver? Surely if you waiver the risk as part of membership that would comply?
Not allowed mate, doesn't stand in Court as you cannot overide the common law duty to provide a safe environment and part of safety is having staff on hand when people are doing something which could rise to injruy, property damage or death.
That's one of the problems with train stations being unmanned as well, but the Government has Crown Immunity, but you could still claim against the operators for failure to provide a safe environment. tbh, it's a goldmine for solicitors!
