As an American with UK dual Citizenship, I see a disturbing trend in the UK: The Americanization of labo(u)r law.

Employment-at-will needs to be abolished worldwide, and a resonalble set of rules based on "just-cause" need to be imposed at the trade treaty level which level the playing field, and discourage these tough employer cultures from developing.

If there are set of workplace rules in place which are the same in all developed countries, and there are consequences for breaking these rules, the problem would not exist.
