Part 10: Post Hearing Considerations

After the tribunal hearing, unless a decision is given at the hearing, you may have to await the written judgment.

There are limited circumstances in which either party can appeal the decision made to the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT). The appeal usually must be on a point(s) of law. An appeal must be sent to the EAT within 42 days of receipt of the written decision.

There are occasions when a party can ask for a reconsideration of a tribunal decision if there has been an obvious mistake. Reconsideration must be requested within 14 days of when the written judgment or full written reasons was sent to the parties.
