The respondents worked outside the UK, living and working for United Kingdom company. Their contracts of employment were expressed to be governed by English law. The court was asked whether that created a sufficient connection with British employment law to bring claims of detrimental treatment in employment tribunal.
Held: The appeal failed. Making the contract subject to English law was enough to create the connection needed.
