Class code 9061 — YMCA/Club — All Employees
Staff of health, fitness, or social clubs including instructors and front-desk personnel.
This classification covers employees of health, fitness, and social clubs, including YMCAs and similar membership-based organizations that combine recreation, instruction, and community programming. It's a broad code meant to capture the mixed workforce found at these facilities.
Payroll usually includes front-desk and membership staff, group fitness and swim instructors, childcare workers in on-site nurseries, maintenance staff, and administrative personnel. Because clubs often run multiple programs under one roof, a single facility can carry a wide range of job duties within this one classification.
Injury exposure varies by role but commonly includes strains from demonstrating exercises or spotting members, slips near pools and locker rooms, and occasional impact injuries during group classes. Facilities with pools or gymnasiums generally see more frequent claims than those focused on quiet meeting or classroom space.
