I've just seen a job that I'm interested in. It lists a driving licence as a requirement but from the description of the role and my (admittedly limited) knowledge of the organisation I'm not sure why it's a requirement.
I live in a city where everyone drives but it's not an option for me to learn as I have a chronic health condition and don't meet the DVLA standards to hold a driving licence. I'm otherwise fine, so I don't consider myself disabled, and I have worked in offices successfully for a long time.
There is a contact email and phone number listed for informal enquiries, should I call up and ask about the driving requirement? I'm not sure how it works for 'reasonable adjustments' if I'm not otherwise disabled. I don't want to put them off me before I've even applied but at the same time is it pointless me applying if I don't meet that requirement? I've worked in the same place for a very long time so I'm not up to date on how I should proceed. Would welcome advice!
