Clause 4(1) of the framework agreement on fixed-term work, concluded on 18 March 1999 and annexed to Council Directive 1999/70/EC of 28 June 1999 concerning the framework agreement on fixed-term work concluded by ETUC, UNICE and CEEP, must be interpreted as precluding national legislation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, which restricts, when there are no objective reasons to justify this, the right to receive a six-yearly continuing education increment solely to teachers employed as established (career) civil servants, to the exclusion of those working as temporary officials, when, in respect of the receipt of that increment, those two categories of workers are in comparable situations.
