These obligations include providing Personal Assistant Services (PAS) to federal employees and applicants with targeted disabilities as defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) (see C.F.R. 1614.203(d)(5). These services are the basic activities of daily living, such as eating and toileting, which persons with certain targeted disabilities may be unable to do independently.
