Manual Work (ground level only, no machinery) Travel Insurance

Manual Work (no machinery):

Many people who choose to travel for a period of time choose to do manual work in order to support themselves.

If you wish to live in another country for a long period of time, you may find that you may not have the ability to save up the large sums of money required to live in that country without working.

Other people may want to avoid spending all their money at once in case of emergencies such as accident or injury, or having the unexpected expense of having to leave the country sooner than expected.

Therefore a simple manual job is a simple solution.

Manual work without the use of machinery includes any job that involves the use of your hands but without using specialist equipment.

These jobs include:

Some popular work that can thus be done whilst abroad in this field include:

• Bar tending
• Receptionist
• Waiting tables in restaurants and cafes
• Kitchen porter
• Hotel housekeeping
• Cleaning staff
• Fruit picking
• Retail work

Risks from doing these types of jobs are generally quite low, however there are basic precautions you can take.

When beginning any new job, make sure you are given a thorough health and safety briefing, and be vigilant of hazards around the workplace.

Take care not to place yourself in any unnecessary danger.

It is important to make sure you are fully insured before leaving the country.
