Isn't there something called the 'working time directive'...

I suspect the SRA will shift (or enforce) the burden onto (on) law firms, requiring them to have and maintain healthy workplaces as part of the increasing focus on entity regulation - which seems inexorable and probably very sensible in a modern context. I know, yet more regulation of the profession but the questions needs to be asked why (some) firms aren't doing this already?
Fitness to practise is a Pandora's box in the legal sector (in my view) because of the added, critical consideration the reputation of the (solicitors) profession - its "most valuable asset".
