Question: Can there be an appeal against the decision of the Industrial Court?
Answer: Yes, the recent amendments to the Industrial Relations Act 1967 allows for 2 modes of action for aggrieved or unsatisfied parties.
The first mode (for matters referred prior to 1-1-2021) is via a judicial review where the award at the Industrial Court can be challenged at the High Court for an error of law, or the lack or excess of jurisdiction by way of certiorari.
The second mode(for matters referred from 1-1-2021 onwards) is an appeal against the entire award of Industrial Court to the High Court. This would be a re-evaluation of all the evidence and submissions of the case at the Industrial Court.
