Members, delegation holders and other volunteers may be interested in the insurance cover the Club holds.
TBIB (Tony Bembrose Insurance Brokers) provides a full brokering service to the Australian Bridge Federation, State Associations, affiliated Clubs and members. Currently the ABF has arranged three main forms of insurance through TBIB and NSWBA affiliated bridge clubs such as Peninsula are automatically covered under these policies. See the ABF website http://www.abf.com.au/about-abf/insurances/ for full details.
A quick summary of these polices follows (taken from NSWBA Insight Issue 4):
- Management Liability Policy - This covers officers of the club from losses related to employment practices as well as corporate responsibility, management liability, etc.
- Voluntary Workers Personal Accident Policy - When volunteers are injured in the course of their work (or direct travel to and from work) for the club, the club is indemnified from loss and the worker is covered. Cover applies to all those hazards to which a covered person is exposed whilst actually engaged in voluntary work on behalf of the club.
- Public Liability Policy - The club is indemnified for paying damages if a member is injured or suffers a loss to their property while on the club’s premises.
In addition we have NSW Workers Compensation cover in place for our part-time employee.
