Document background
The Rush Waiver is essential for businesses and organizations offering high-intensity activities or services in Switzerland where participants need to acknowledge and accept inherent risks. This document is commonly used in adventure sports, recreational activities, and similar high-energy events where there is a need to establish clear understanding of risks and responsibilities. The waiver must comply with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations and consumer protection laws, which place specific limitations on liability exclusions. The Rush Waiver includes provisions for risk disclosure, voluntary participation acknowledgment, medical fitness confirmation, and emergency procedures. It serves as a crucial risk management tool while ensuring that both service providers and participants have a clear understanding of their rights and responsibilities under Swiss law.
