Ska hyvling ses som omreglering av anställningsvillkoren eller som en omplacering enligt anställningsskyddslagen? Detta kan beskrivas som en process i två steg där omreglering och omplacering egentligen inte bör jämföras då de har olika rättsliga utgångar. Det är främst en avtalsrättslig fråga men som är av stor betydelse i ett arbetsrättsligt perspektiv där det finns en komplexitet i hur omreglerPlaning the employment can partly be seen as re-regulation of the employment terms or as a relocation according to the Employment Protection Act.

Det saknas ett specifikt lagskydd för personlig integritet i anställningsförhållande. Frågan om speciallagstiftning på området har lyfts flertalet gånger men har aldrig resulterat i ny lagstiftning.
