Ministers are considering forcing firms to keep the jobs of women on maternity leave open for a year.
The law currently forces firms to hold a woman's job open for up to six months' maternity leave.
Labour Deputy Leader Harriet Harman is thought to be one of the senior ministers championing the plan to extend this period to 12 months.

What does Harman care about the UK? She's only interested in power for herslef.
