Why Hire a Physically Challenged Instructor?
There are many benefits to hiring group exercise instructors with physical challenges. You'll get great instructors who are motivating to their class participants and club members in general, as well as individuals who are inspiring to colleagues and to other club employees. They have valuable skills in problem solving and perseverance, and in general tend to be more loyal as employees. Hiring disabled instructors will help promote inclusive fitness in general and will set an example of a welcoming environment at your health club for everyone. Your organization will likely be seen as more socially responsible and may be more favorably looked upon as a result. Finally, there are tax incentives that you may be able to take advantage of, providing additional and direct financial benefits.
