Employment Accommodations: ABC is committed to complying with all applicable laws ensuring equal employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities. It is the Association's policy not to discriminate against a qualified employee or applicant with regard to any terms or conditions of employment because of such individual's disability or perceived disability, so long as the employee can perform the essential functions of the job, with or without reasonable accommodation. ABC provides reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability, who is an applicant or an employee, unless undue hardship and/or a direct threat to the health and/or safety of the individual or others would result.

Physical Demands: While performing the duties of this position, the employee must be able to:

• Move throughout the office or other work locations, including prolonged periods of sitting, standing, and walking.
• Hear and understand verbal communication at normal speaking levels, with or without assistance, and communicate clearly in person and over the phone.
• Use hands and fingers to operate a computer, handle documents, and control tools or office equipment.
• Occasionally stand, walk, reach with arms and hands, climb, balance, stoop, kneel, crouch, or crawl as required by the task or location.
• Visually read and interpret information on computer screens, printed documents, and visual aids both near and far, including distinguishing colors when necessary.
• Safely navigate construction sites or event locations, which may involve walking on uneven terrain, climbing stairs or ladders, exposure to outdoor weather conditions, and standing for extended periods.
• Wear required personal protective equipment (PPE), such as hard hats, safety vests, eye protection, or other safety gear, as appropriate to the site or activity.

Work Environment: This role is primarily performed in a standard office setting with minimal noise and typical working conditions.

• Depending on job responsibilities, work may also be conducted at off-site locations such as construction sites, industry events, or partner facilities. These environments may involve variable weather, uneven terrain, or other safety considerations.
• ABC supports flexible work schedules to accommodate various lifestyles and promote a healthy work-life balance. With manager approval, a hybrid remote work arrangement may be available, with the ABC office as the primary work location.
• Employee health and safety are top priorities. All applicable health, safety, and site-specific protocols must be followed—whether working in the office, remotely, or at off-site locations.
