Document Overview
A waiver is a legal document which protects someone who wants to reduce their risk of liability. Reducing liability is important for businesses, especially those that facilitate risk-related activities.
Despite taking all the necessary safety precautions, there is still a level of risk associated with horse riding. As a business offering this horse riding, it is feasible that accidents or injuries may occur while customers are participating.
A horse riding waiver is a specific agreement between the customer and the horse riding provider whereby the client will give up their ability to sue if any injuries, damage or loss were to occur. This horse riding waiver will also outline the risks associated with the horse riding services your business provides. These risks must be acknowledged and accepted by customers prior to commencing.
Important
It’s important to remember that there are some exceptions to the release of liability. You won't be protected by a waiver if an incident is caused by some forms of negligence or misconduct on behalf of your business. Given the presence of notable risk in this activity, you should always have your waiver reviewed by a lawyer before use.
