Unless you have a contractual right to a particular position, an employer may change your position or assignments. Possession of a driver's license in itself is not a prohibited basis of discrimination. Answers do not consider specific facts in your situation; answers merely provide general information about the law. You should consult a lawyer if you have evidence that the absence of a driver's license is a pretext for prohibited discrimination or retaliation.
