# Disability & Accomodations

If Pax Fauna is made aware of a partner's disability and there is a need for accommodation, the Program Lead, the partner's coach, or the partner’s circle lead will engage with them in an interactive process as outlined under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This process will determine what, if any, accommodations are necessary and reasonable to assist the employee in doing the essential functions of their job. Whether an accommodation is reasonable will be determined based on several factors, including whether it will effectively assist the employee in doing the essential functions of their job, the cost, and the effect on organizational operations. &#x20;

All employees are required to comply with safety standards. Employees who pose a direct threat to the health or safety of themselves or others in the workplace may be temporarily moved into another position or placed on leave until it is determined if a reasonable accommodation will effectively mitigate the risk.
