Joint Morris Organisation Personal Accident Policy Information
After discussions with the JMO, Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) is now standard within the policy every side receives every year as part of their membership from this year (see our Insurance for Sides page). This will mean teams won’t have to fill out the separate form listing members who wish to have PAI, and make administering the whole process easier.
Cover is provided for Side Members to be insured for accidents whilst dancing for Side members between the ages of 16 and 79. It is not possible to include Side members aged below 16 or over 80. It provides cover for insured members whilst dancing out or at practice and in transit to / from such events. Please note that this cover operates in the UK only.
If going abroad, your travel insurance should provide this cover.
A copy of the policy wording can be found below. Benefits provided are accidents causing death or permanent disablement £10,000 except for those aged between 76 and 80 where the cover is £5,000.
For temporary total disablement the cover, excluding the first four weeks, is £100 per week up to the age of 65, £50 per week for those aged between 66 and 75 and £25 per week for those aged between 76 and 80.
