As a general principle of British Common Law, upon which Scotland's and most current or past U.K. nations' laws are based, an entity doing business in a jurisdiction is bound by the laws of that jurisdiction. An employer based in England, but with offices in Scotland, Ireland and Canada would be bound in each country by the local labour laws. At the end of the day, it is Scotland, not England that determines if the English company has to follow the Scottish law.
Is Scotland within the UK law jurisdiction?
Scotland (like England, Wales and Northern Ireland) has its own parliament The Scottish parliament can create their own Scotland-specific laws on 'devolved matters' (as defined in the Scotland Act 1998). Devolved matters are issues that are specific to Scotland such as their agriculture, tourism, education system and so forth. The UK Parliament, based in Westminster, may create laws on 'reserved issues' that would cover Scotland along with the rest of the UK. Reserved issues are national issues such as immigration policy, benefits, data protection, etc. The UK Parliament does have the power to create law on 'Devolved matters' as well, but it rarely does so. Therefore Scotland is subject to UK law, but does not necessarily have the same laws that are present in other parts of the UK.
