Legal Problems about Physical Fitness Entrepreneurship

Abstract

This dissertation aimed to study physical fitness entrepreneurship’s fundamental information, theories, and principles of law, and to study relevant laws concerning to the entrepreneurship both in Thailand and overseas. Additionally, its purposes were to analyze legal problems and to suggest proper relevant laws. This study was carried out by applying document analysis and semi structured interview. According to the results, it was found that, at the present time, law enforcement related to physical fitness entrepreneurship is still legally problematic. That is, the legal problems were that there were vagueness of principles, conditions, and ways of requesting permission to establish physical fitness entrepreneurship, lack of central agencies for determining standards of the entrepreneurship, the problem of issuing specific licenses for this kind of business, including the problem in terms of consumer protection law. Therefore, it could be suggested that the Act of Physical Fitness Entrepreneurship should be specifically legislated, which provides details of appointing a committee who determines standards and takes charge of standard control as well as issues a license for physical fitness entrepreneurs, including takes action on the control of contract management between entrepreneurs and customers. This could lead to fair agreement and legal problem solving in Thailand sustainably and everlastingly.
