For example circumstances can be that a person is disabled (requiring social adapted assistance) or a person is francophone (requiring services in French) etc.

In some situations, a circumstance may be determined by another circumstance (e.g. a person experiencing an employability barrier may be determined by the level of education and skill, the assessed person need may be training).
