WHAT ABOUT LIABILITY AND INSURANCE?

The Catholic HEART Workcamp does not allow any participants without personal health medical insurance to participate in Workcamp. If for some reason a participant does not have health insurance, you may purchase a temporary policy through www.temporaryinsurance.com. In the unlikely case medical attention is needed, the participants personal health insurance is needed to cover any expenses that occur.  The Catholic HEART Workcamp will employ reputable staff members and take reasonable precautions to safeguard the Workcamp participants during the week of Workcamp.  However, neither the Catholic HEART Workcamp, social agencies or the school acting as “home base” will be liable for loss or damage to property of participants prior to, during or following the Workcamp due to theft, fire, accident or any other cause beyond its control. It is the sole responsibility of the participants to obtain insurance at their own expense against property loss, damage or injury and against liability for personal injury.  The Catholic HEART Workcamps liability for injury to persons or loss or damage to property shall be limited to such as may be caused by negligence.  The Workcamp participants assumes responsibility and agrees to indemnify and defend the Workcamp, employees and agents associated with the Workcamp against any claims and expenses arising from negligence, theft, loss, damage or personal injury.  The Catholic HEART Workcamp has limited General Liability coverage.
