Warning
NCPN, an organization of the Center for Occupational Research and Development (CORD), cares about the safety and wellness of all event attendees. An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. I acknowledge that participation in NCPN events and activities brings some risk and I do hereby assume responsibility for my own well-being.
Waiver, Release, and Indemnification
As a condition of my participation in this meeting or event, I, do hereby expressly waive any rights against and release and hold harmless CORD and any of its officers, employees, affiliates, contractors, agents, heirs, legal successors, and assigns (collectively “CORD”) from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, losses, damages, expenses, or liability of whatever kind or nature (collectively “liability”), under any theory of law or equity, that may arise during or as a result of my presence at the premises, including but not limited to any such liability related to or arising out of illness, injury, or death associated with infection of COVID-19 or complications, symptoms, or other effects resulting from contracting COVID-19.
I shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless CORD and all other Releasees against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including attorney fees, and the costs of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Agreement, and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers, arising out or resulting from any claim of a third party related to the Activities.
I UNDERSTAND, AND IT IS MY EXPRESS INTENT, THAT THIS RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY RELEASES CORD FROM SUCH LIABILITY EVEN IF SUCH LIABILITY RESULTS FROM OR IS CAUSED BY THE SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY OR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER LEGAL FAULT OF CORD OR ANY THIRD PARTY. I ALSO UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT CORD DOES NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL OR OTHER ASSISTANCE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO MEDICAL, HEALTH, OR DISABLITY ASSISTANCE IN THE EVENT OF INJURY OR ILLNESS. IN THE EVENT THAT I OR MY FAMILY MEMBER IS INJURED, BECOMES ILL, OR SUFFERS COMPLICATIONS DUE TO COVID-19, ALLEGEDLY AS A RESULT OF MY PARTICIPATION IN A NCPN/CORD EVENT, I AGREE TO RELEASE AND HOLD HARMLESS CORD IN THE SAME MANNER AND TO THE SAME EXTENT AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
