In an action under the Missouri Human Rights Act for employment discrimination based on disability, disability includes whether employment can continue with a reasonable accommodation. An employee with post-traumatic stress syndrome could not be reliable as a peace officer, and statutes require employers to offer another job, but the employee did not identify any opening for a job he could do. Describing duties of what he was capable of did not carry the employee’s burden of proof.
