18.01.2022 NSW FITNESS FACILITIES UPDATE Just to clear up some of the questions we have been receiving regarding electronic check in's, although most fitness facilities already do this, from Monday the 23rd of November 2020 customer check-in's at fitness facilities must be completed using electronic methods. These electronic methods need to collect the following data for contact tracing purposes: Full name of the person entering the fitness facility ... Phone number (and email address where possible) Date and time of entry (and time of exit where possible) Records must be kept for a minimum period of 28 days and provided as soon as possible upon request from NSW Health - This can be requested at anytime, 7 days a week. This includes any casual visits e.g. non-member partaking in classes, trials etc. However, Records are not required for customers or visitors collecting takeaway items or dropping off goods. If your facility uses a pre-existing electronic check in method, please ensure you update your policies in regards to passing on your members details to regulatory bodies if needed for contact tracing purposes. If you need an electronic check in system, you can access a unique business QR code here from the NSW Government if your business has been registered as COVID Safe: https://bit.ly/3601x2n For further information please visit: https://bit.ly/2Je9jNi #FitnessIndustry #FitnessAustralia #PersonalTrainers #Gyms #GymOwners #Fitness #FitnessFacilities

11.01.2022 We are calling for national consistency to support local businesses in COVID-19 recovery Looking after the health of all Australians has been at the top of Federal, State and Territory Government agendas in 2020 but the future long-term health of the nation has been overlooked. Essential fitness services, that support overall wellbeing and mental health, have been left out of recently-announced voucher schemes aimed at boosting local economies. "As an industry association t...hat supports thousands of small businesses, we endorse any measure that will help boost cash flow and revenue for business owners and operators. However, the current voucher schemes rolled out in NSW and Victoria only considers dining, entertainment and tourism. What about vouchers to get people back into fitness to improve mental health and overall wellbeing post-COVID? - Barrie Elvish, CEO of Fitness Australia. If people and families were able to use a $100 voucher towards a gym membership, a personal training session or take up a dance, Pilates or yoga class, it’s likely they will make it part of their routine to look after their health and wellbeing something that has been greatly impacted during COIVD isolation, associated stress and uncertainty.

01.01.2022 "I would like to take this opportunity to clarify a few misconceptions: Fitness Australia is a not-for-profit member driven industry association; it is not a private company The Regulation Survey is designed to only ascertain the sector’s appetite for the possible implementation of some form of Regulatory Framework. If there is no appetite, the concept will not progress. However, if there is a strong desire to consider the above, a draft proposal(s) will be develope...d and put out for further industry consultation There is no preconceived model in mind I imagine any draft would cover and review the full scope of industry interests including but not limited to; CEC’s and their cost, employment contracts, qualifications, scope of practice, professional development, codes of conduct, hygiene and safety, incentives and potential sanctions etc." To read the the full letter, please click here: https://bit.ly/2JrJ5a9 To complete the survey, please click here: https://bit.ly/34VlTJr #FitnessIndustry #FitnessAustralia #Fitness #Gyms #PersonalTrainers #ExerciseProfessionals #FitnessFacilities #GymOwners
