Article 3 Jurisdiction of employment tribunals

In this article, the expressions “the English area”, “the Scottish area” and “the Northern Irish area” have the same meanings respectively as in the Civil Jurisdiction (Offshore Activities) Order 1987^f1.

In England and Wales, the employment tribunals shall have jurisdiction to determine complaints or appeals arising (in connection with employment to which this Order applies) from acts or omissions taking place in the English area, as they would have if those acts or omissions had taken place in England and Wales.

In Scotland, the employment tribunals shall have jurisdiction to determine complaints or appeals arising (in connection with employment to which this Order applies) from acts or omissions taking place in the Scottish area, as they would have if those acts or omissions had taken place in Scotland.

In Northern Ireland, the industrial tribunals shall have jurisdiction to determine complaints or appeals arising (in connection with employment to which this Order applies) from acts or omissions taking place in the Northern Irish area, as they would have if those acts or omissions had taken place in Northern Ireland.
