The High Court has decided that a bargaining unit of pilots working for a UK registered company in several European countries was sufficiently strongly connected to Great Britain to enable the trade union to seek statutory recognition for collective bargaining from the Central Arbitration Committee (CAC). Relevant factors included that the employment contracts were governed by English law and included an exclusive English jurisdiction clause. (Netjets Management Ltd v Central Arbitration Committee, HC)
