BBC NEWS | Business | UK gender pay gap 'worst in EU'

BBC NEWS | Business | UK gender pay gap 'worst in EU'

This report focusses primarily on "low pay" jobs, but also alludes to the fact that women in well paid jobs are often forced into lower paid jobs or out of work altogether because they become pregnant. It's not hard for me to imagine the situation where a woman goes back to work but is refused part-time working and is effectively "constructively dismissed".
