Guidelines for Persons Representing Parties before the Employment Appeals Tribunal

These guidelines have been prepared for the assistance of those who appear on behalf of clients before the Tribunal.

The Tribunal was established to provide a speedy, inexpensive and relatively informal means for resolution of disputes under the various legislation that comes within the Tribunal’s scope. All practitioners should bear this principle in mind when preparing and presenting cases and should avoid “legalisms”.
