YES!!!!
My former boss decided she wanted to work from home after having her second kid in 18 months (she was lierally not pregant for a matter of weeks).

Then threatened court action if they refused.

Instead she got some cushy stay at home position on her manager's pay and does about an hours work a week, cos my company were too scared to take her (and the law) on and argue that she couldn't possibly be a manager if she wasn't in the office.

Mind you, she was a shit boss anyway.
