Chapter 6

Workers outside Great Britain

[ch 6: page 161]

The EA 10 covers all those working in Great Britain (Northern Ireland is covered by separate legislation).

As regards workers outside Great Britain, the test is whether a claimant has a sufficiently strong connection with Great Britain (Clyde & Co LLP v Bates [2012] EWCA Civ 1207). This is the same test that is used for claims of unfair dismissal (See Chapter 10: Dismissal).
