Employment law is a law that protects workers rights, gives some guarantees that are important for all workers, like minimum wage or compensation from being dismissed.
In English people who work have the main rights. According to Employments Protection Act employees have right to compensation if they are dismissed, women have right to time off and also return to work after having the baby, men over 65 and women over 60 are not entitled to compensation for redundancy. Also according to other acts people can't be discriminated at work, their race or sex is not important and men or women must get equal pay for equal work.
In some cases EC gives better protection than English law and also there are some differences, for example, Sunday trading. Right to strike in Britain should be supported by a majority vote of the workers.
In Japan employees don't have so many legal rights but still they once hired work all life and don't change the place. They get insurance benefits and many workers are able to live in a big cities.
Employment law is very important part of law which defends employees rights and gives guarantees.
