First Circle complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, and all applicable state and local fair employment practice laws. We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with disabilities, including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions, such as lactation or the need to express milk for a nursing child. Consistent with this commitment, First Circle will provide reasonable accommodation to otherwise qualified individuals where appropriate to allow the individual to perform the job, unless doing so would create an undue hardship on the business.
If you require an accommodation because of your disability, it is your responsibility to notify your Director. You may be asked to include relevant information such as:
After receiving your request, First Circle will talk with you to determine the precise limitations of your disability and explore potential reasonable accommodations that could overcome those limitations. Where appropriate, we may need your permission to obtain additional information from your medical provider. All medical information received by First Circle in connection with a request for accommodation will be confidential.
First Circle encourages you to suggest specific reasonable accommodations you believe would allow you to perform your job. However, we are not required to make your specific accommodations and may provide an alternative accommodation, to the extent any reasonable accommodation can be made without imposing an undue hardship on First Circle. If leave is provided as a reasonable accommodation, that leave may run concurrently with leave under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act and/or any other leave permitted by state and federal law.
First Circle will not discriminate or retaliate against employees for requesting an accommodation.
