Maternity leave is a matter of human rights surely?Firing someone because they have reached a certain age is a matter of human rights..equal pay for both genders is a matter of human rights?

Employment Law may not be enshrined in the ECHR but Employment Law came about because of the application of human rights.If unfair dismissal were to be abolished then the workforce will just turn to the ECHR for clarification and I predict they would get the support they would be looking for.
