Working abroad in a non-manual role covers employment that does not involve physical labour or machinery. This can include office and clerical roles, bar and restaurant work, teaching, retail, music performance and similar positions. Unlike manual trades or construction work, non-manual roles are generally based indoors or in customer-facing environments, but they still form part of your insured trip when declared correctly.
ActivitySure can cover working abroad on an amateur, non-professional basis where the role falls within non-manual duties. It does not extend to construction, lifting roles or work involving machinery. While these positions are typically lower risk than manual labour, illness, accidents and travel disruption can still affect your plans.

Destination Insight
Where is popular to go for non-manual work abroad?
Non-manual working holidays are common across Europe, Australia and Canada, where travellers often take up seasonal hospitality roles, office placements or customer service positions. Resort areas, cities and agricultural regions with seasonal fruit picking opportunities are also popular destinations. Many travellers combine short-term employment with exploring the local area during their time abroad.
Here's why non-manual working travel insurance matters:
Even in office or hospitality settings, accidents and illness can happen. Slips in kitchens or bars, repetitive strain injuries, or unexpected medical conditions may require treatment. Working abroad can also mean longer stays away from home, increasing exposure to travel disruption or cancellation issues. If you need medical care or have to cut your trip short, appropriate travel insurance helps protect you financially.
