Will Brexit have an impact on UK women's employment rights?

As Britain prepares its departure from the EU, one political commitment has been accused of being overlooked – women’s rights.

According to the Equality and Human Rights Commision (EHRC), women in the UK risk losing equality protections, including employment rights, as a result of Brexit. In its review, the body warns that the Equality Act, is not included in the withdrawal bill, despite the Government promising its protections once the UK leaves.
