Abstract
The main aim of the article is to survey and conceptualise the place of employment security in labour law, and to explore a number of important legal questions relating to this concept. After scrutinising the notion of employment security, the author endorses the view that job security that exists on the basis of dismissal law is more complex than reform proposals usually suggest. In addition, the author argues that dismissal protection serves other goals and interests than job security alone and that these aspects of dismissal protection legislation cannot be replaced by (an increased) employment security (coupled with income security). A further development of true employment security can, however, certainly complement job security and benefit workers, since they have never had absolute job security and this job security seems to be eroding.
