BRITAIN’S new equality chief has warned that mothers face more discrimination in work than any other group, including the disabled and the poorest ethnic minorities.
Trevor Phillips, in his first big policy announcement, is expected to propose sweeping “family friendly” laws and practices.
He supports the introduction of “annualised hours contracts”, allowing women to take entire weeks off work, if they make up the hours during the rest of the year. His report also recommends much wider use of job-sharing and childcare facilities.
The proposals are likely to anger business chiefs who fear such changes would undermine their competitiveness by imposing extra red tape and expensive employee rights.

This is completely the case. I've seen knuckle headed bosses in previous jobs attempt shocking bullying of women with kids without justification.
