Are there any advantages to bringing a claim in a British Employment Tribunal?
A. There may be advantages to relying on British law, as in some respects it offers greater protection than foreign jurisdictions, such as with some discrimination, whistleblowing and unfair dismissal claims. Also the general rule is that you do not have to pay the other side’s costs if you lose your claim (although there are important exceptions). However, assessment of compensation in some European countries is more generous than in Great Britain.
