Law reviews
The European equality law review is produced by the European network of legal experts in gender
equality and non-discrimination (EELN/the network). The aim of the EELN is, and has been since 2015, to provide the European Commission and the general public with independent information regarding gender
equality and non-discrimination law and, more specifically, on the transposition and implementation of
the EU equality and non-discrimination directives. From 2015 to 2022, the network produced two issues
of the European equality law review each year. From 2023 onwards, the network will be producing one
issue per year, providing an overview of one full year of legal and policy developments in European and
national gender equality and non-discrimination law. The current issue reflects, as far as possible, the
state of affairs from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2023.

Thematic reports
This thematic report, written by Miguel de la Corte Rodríguez, discusses Directive 2019/1158 on work-life balance for parents and carers (WLB Directive), which modernises existing rights such as parental leave and the right to request flexible working arrangements (FWAs), and creates new rights at European level, such as paternity leave and carers’ leave. Almost one year after the end of the Directive's implementation period, this report analyses the most important aspects about the implementation of the Directive in the EU Member States, and concludes that there is still considerable work to be done at national level to achieve a proper implementation of the WLB Directive.
