                 Express your own opinion about the words of the influential labour lawyer Sir Otto Kahn-Freund:  “…the relation between an employer and an isolated employee or worker is typically a relation between a bearer of power and one who is not a bearer of power. In its inception it is an act of submission, in its operation it is a condition of subordination, however much the submission and the subordination may be concealed by the indispensable figment of the legal mind known as the 'contract of employment'. The main object of labour law has been, and I venture to say will always be a countervailing force to counteract the inequality of bargaining power which is inherent and must be inherent in the employment relationship.”

Notes: submission – подчинение, subordination – зависимость, подчиненность, indispensable – обязательный, countervailing force – компенсирующая сила.
