sacked or made redundant whilst pregnant

dazleeds1978

my wife currently 17 weeks pregnant. She is been working for 1 year for her employer. As from her experiences for the last year with her employer he employee new staff and sack them just before they finish one year.

my wife works as sales staff and she is from Romania with marriage visa in the UK.

We are really worried once she is says she is pregnant they will find a reason to make her redundant.

It will be really great if you can get some advice for the below

Her company opening branches in India with staff speaking Romanian she guess once this branch opened they will make all the UK staff (Romanian speaking) redundant is this legal to make my wife redundant for this reason.

Can they make her redundant if tell her employer on the 23 week of her Pregnancy for a reason they can find eg she didnt reach her target of sales on this month.

As my wife from Romania and she is on marriage visa for two years which of the following she is entitled to
OML = Ordinary maternity Leave
AML = Additional Maternity Leave
SMP = Statutory Maternity Pay
MA = Maternity Allowance


Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks very much
