A 2113 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Prohibits health club services contracts from limiting liability for injuries caused by negligence of health club.

This bill prohibits health clubs from including contract terms that limit their liability for injuries caused by the health club's negligence (e.g., carelessness in maintaining equipment or facilities). It applies directly to all health club service contracts in New Jersey, requiring written agreements to clearly state this prohibition in conspicuous language. Key provisions include mandating that contracts include a prominent notice about the 3-day cancellation right (allowing full refunds), setting limits on fees retained during cancellations (max 10% of total price), and requiring automatic renewal options to be easily accessible online. The bill aims to strengthen consumer protections by ensuring health clubs remain accountable for preventable injuries under their control.
