Hypothetical question

I wouldn’t care, they’re just doing their job since I assume no trampoline park allows pregnant people to participate

If it was a health question they asked every female for insurance purposes then I'd say that's absolutely fine, I can't imagine any trampoline parks allowing pregnant women to actually use the park themselves. If they just asked me because they thought I personally looked pregnant I'd be a bit offended, but that's because I'm not pregnant just chunky 🤣

As an insurance underwriter that’s insures these types of venues she’s asking you for H&S reasons if you’re going to be bouncing with your little one & something happens you won’t be able to claim for injury etc x

So, my husband is a health & safety compliance manager for Gravity UK and he says staff members have been asking female customers if they are pregnant and if so, they aren't allowed to participate in the activity as it's high risk. But, my argument is, - if I have signed the waiver and told staff members I am pregnant and have paid for my session I should still be allowed to participate as it should be a 'enter at your own risk' but he disagrees and says we have a duty of care as a business to avoid any health problems to the expectant mother & baby.. I just wanted people's opinions because it should only be advisory that women who are pregnant shouldn't participate x

I agree with him. The venue still has health and safety standards to meet and likely wouldn’t be covered by their insurance if something were to happen

I agree with your husband. There are lots of things that are advisory only but from a black and white safety perspective if it’s all or nothing then the company is protecting themselves and you. All it would take is for one woman to have a problem and blame them.

@Lauren he’s right. The duty of care takes precedence.

A waiver isn't shit. You could still turn around and sue them for negligence. Stop trying to go trampolining while pregnant.

@Ella it's a hypothetical question lol I'm not going trampolining while pregnant 🤣

It’s the duty of care thing. Your husband is right. Whilst you may sign a waiver etc the ‘duty of care’ is to not allow you to put yourself in the position to hurt yourself in the first place

Even with those waivers there is still some liability to those places. I would assume most people would but hey people do dumb things everyday so the venue needs to protect themselves. The same way pregnant people aren’t allowed on some rides at amusement parks a

Thanks all, he's happy you've all agreed with him 😆 I would never put myself and my baby at harms way, it was just a hypothetical question as they get alot of complaints with the same thing even with the waiver been signed and the video been watched etc. even if you was to stand around (on the trampolines, it's not allowed as you may get injured by third party) x

Fine because it’s their job to ask! It’s a liability.

Some women might not realise it isn’t safe to go trampolining when pregnant so it’s good if the establishment tells them that.

Don’t know why people get offended because this is literally asked everywhere: beauty salon, dentist, massage, etc
