Why You Need a Business Consent Release Form
In almost any service-based industry involving physical contact, personal image, or significant chemical/equipment use, you run the risk of liability claims. Independent practitioners, contractors, and boutique shop owners often overlook proper legal documentation to protect themselves.
Common Industries that Require Waivers
- Photographers & Videographers: To use a model's likeness in promotional materials or portfolios, you must have a signed "Model Release" or imagery consent.
- Tattoo Artists & Piercers: Due to immediate physical risks like allergic reactions, infections, and permanence, signed acknowledgment of these risks is critical.
- Spas, Salons & Estheticians: Chemical treatments (like bleaching, heavy waxing, or peels) can result in unexpected skin reactions. Protect yourself by having clients disclose underlying conditions via a release form.
