> employment law and regulation is not easy to change as it impacts the lives of so many

OK, so assuming a significant amount of people disapprove of these laws, why are they not changed? Do you suggest that it is institutional inertia or populist pressure?

I know about the 6 month rule; it seems like a logical and useful feature.

In South Africa the answer is simple about why our practical implementation of regulations is not good: our government is dysfunctional. From a point of view of our actual laws, they are well written and better than many European countries, but they are selectively implemented.
