Traditionally, the determination of the territorial scope of the statutory rights conferred by employment legislation forming part of E nglish law has been regarded as an issue entirely disconnected from the choice‐of‐law process. Indeed, this view formed the basis of the key decision addressing the problem of territoriality, L awson v S erco , decided by the H ouse of L ords in 2006. After presenting the current state of the law with regard to the territorial scope of employment legislation, this article takes a critical look at L awson v S erco . It is argued that the ‘ E uropean’ choice‐of‐law rules must have a greater importance for determining the territorial scope of employment legislation and, consequently, that the approach pursued in L awson v S erco is no longer correct, if it ever was, and should not be followed in the future
