Predlog za sprejetje predhodne odločbe se nana�a na razlago členov 4(1) in 10(1) Uredbe Sveta (EGS) �t. 1408/71 z dne 14. junija 1971 o uporabi sistemov socialne varnosti za zaposlene osebe, samozaposlene osebe in njihove družinske člane, ki se gibljejo v Skupnosti (UL L 149, str.
416), as amended and updated by Council Regulation (EC) No 118/97 of 2 December 1996 (OJ 1997 L 28, p.
2), kot je bila spremenjena in posodobljena z Uredbo Sveta (ES) �t. 118/97 z dne 2. decembra 1996 (UL L 28, str.
1) (‘Regulation No 1408/71’), and the interpretation of Article 39 EC.
1, v nadaljevanju: Uredba �t. 1408/71), ter na razlago člena 39 ES.
Article 4(1) of Regulation No 1408/71 provides as follows:
Člen 4(1) Uredbe �t. 1408/71 določa:
(b) invalidity benefits, including those intended for the maintenance or improvement of earning capacity;
(b) invalidske dajatve [prejemki za invalidnost], vključno s tistimi, ki so namenjene vzdrževanju ali izbolj�evanju možnosti pridobivanja zaslužka;
(g) unemployment benefits;
(g) dajatve za brezposelnost [prejemki za brezposelnost];
According to the first subparagraph of Article 10(1) of the regulation:
Člen 10(1), prvi pododstavek, te uredbe določa:
‘Save as otherwise provided in this Regulation, invalidity, old-age or survivors’ cash benefits, pensions for accidents at work or occupational diseases and death grants acquired under the legislation of one or more Member States shall not be subject to any reduction, modification, suspension, withdrawal or confiscation by reason of the fact that the recipient resides in the territory of a Member State other than that in which the institution responsible for payment is situated.’
„Kadar ta uredba ne določa drugače, se denarne dajatve [denarni prejemki] za invalidnost, starost ter za preživele osebe, pokojnine za nesreče pri delu ali poklicne bolezni ter pomoči ob smrti, pridobljene po zakonodaji ene ali več držav članic, ne morejo zmanj�ati, spremeniti, začasno ustaviti, odvzeti ali zapleniti zaradi tega, ker prejemnik stalno prebiva na ozemlju druge države članice, kot je tista, v kateri se nahaja nosilec, ki je odgovoren za plačilo.“
Article 69(1) of the regulation provides as follows:
Člen 69(1) te uredbe določa:
(a) before his departure, he must have been registered with the employment services of the competent State as a person seeking work and must have remained available for at least four weeks after becoming unemployed.
(a) pred odhodom mora biti prijavljen kot oseba, ki i�če delo, in mora ostati na voljo službam za zaposlovanje pristojne države najmanj �tiri tedne po nastopu brezposelnosti.
(b) he must register as a person seeking work with the employment services of each of the Member States to which he goes and be subject to the control procedure organised therein.
(b) kot oseba, ki i�če delo, se mora prijaviti pri službi za zaposlovanje v vsaki od držav članic, v katero gre, in zanjo veljajo v njej organizirani postopki nadzora.
This condition shall be considered satisfied for the period before registration if the person concerned registered within seven days of the date when he ceased to be available to the employment services of the State he left.
Za dobo pred prijavo velja ta pogoj za izpolnjen, če se je oseba prijavila v sedmih dneh po datumu, ko je prenehala biti na razpolago službi za zaposlovanje v državi, ki jo je zapustila.
(c) entitlement to benefits shall continue for a maximum period of three months from the date when the person concerned ceased to be available to the employment services of the State which he left, provided that the total duration of the benefits does not exceed the duration of the period of benefits he was entitled to under the legislation of the State.
(c) upravičenost do dajatev [prejemkov]se nadaljuje največ tri mesece po datumu, ko je oseba prenehala biti na razpolago službam za zaposlovanje v državi, ki jo je zapustila, če skupno trajanje prejemanja dajatev [prejemkov] ne preseže dobe, za katero bi bila oseba upravičena do dajatev [prejemkov] po zakonodaji te države.
In the case of a seasonal worker such duration shall, moreover, be limited to the period remaining until the end of the season for which he was engaged.’
V primeru sezonskega delavca je to trajanje omejeno na obdobje, ki preostaja do konca sezone, za katero je bil delavec zaposlen.“
Article 71 of the regulation governs the payment of benefits to unemployed persons who, during their last employment, resided in the territory of a Member State other than the competent State.
V členu 71 te uredbe je urejeno prejemanje prejemkov za brezposelne osebe, ki so med zadnjo zaposlitvijo stalno prebivale na ozemlju države članice, ki ni pristojna država.

No 71/2003; ‘the AlVG’), en -titled ‘Unemployment benefit — Conditions of entitlement’, provides as follows:
I, 71/2003, v nadaljevanju: AlVG) z naslovom „Nadomestilo za brezposelnost – Pogoji za upravičenost“, določa:
A person is entitled to unemployment benefit if:
Do nadomestila za brezposelnost je upravičena oseba, ki
1. he is available to be placed in work,
1) je na razpolago službi za zaposlovanje,
2. he has completed the eligibility period, and
2) izpolnjuje pogoje o trajanju zavarovalnega razmerja in
3. he has not finished the benefit period.
3) �e ni presegla obdobja upravičenosti do prejemka.
A person is available to be placed in work if he can and is entitled to take up employment (subparagraph 3), and is capable of working (Paragraph 8), is willing to work (Paragraph 9) and is unemployed (Paragraph 12).
Na razpolago službi za zaposlovanje je oseba, ki lahko sprejme zaposlitev in jo ima pravico sprejeti (odstavek 3) ter je zmožna za delo (člen 8), pripravljena delati (člen 9) in brezposelna (člen 12).
The requirement that a person must have the capacity to work shall not apply in respect of unemployed persons who have been granted measures for professional rehabilitation, where the person has achieved the purpose of those measures (Paragraph 300(1) and (3) of the Allgemeines Sozialversicherungsgesetz (General Law on Social Security ‘ASVG’)) and completed the required eligibility period in accordance with that measure.
Pogoj zmožnosti za delo ne velja za brezposelne osebe, ki so bile upravičene do ukrepov za ponovno vključitev na trg dela in so dosegle cilj teh ukrepov (člen 300(1) in (3) [zakonika o socialni varnosti (Allgemeines Sozialversicherungsgesetz, v nadaljevanju: ASVG)]) in dopolnile zahtevano trajanje zavarovalnega razmerja po tem ukrepu.
According to Paragraph 16 of the AlVG, entitled ‘Suspension of unemployment benefit’:
Člen 16 AlVG, z naslovom „Začasna ustavitev nadomestila za brezposelnost“:
Entitlement to unemployment benefit is suspended where
Pravica do nadomestila za brezposelnost se začasno ustavi med
(g) the person is abroad, to the extent that neither subparagraph 3 nor provisions based on international treaties are applicable
(g) bivanjem v tujini, če se odstavek 3 ali določbe, sprejete na podlagi mednarodnih konvencij, ne uporabljajo;
On application by the unemployed person, and following a hearing before the regional board, the suspension of unemployment benefit under subparagraph 1(g) above may be lifted in exceptional circumstances for up to three months while the entitlement to benefit otherwise exists (Paragraph 18).
Na zahtevo brezposelne osebe se odpravi začasna ustavitev nadomestila za brezposelnost iz naslova odstavka 1(g), če so upo�tevne okoli�čine, potem ko regionalni svet poda mnenje, izpolnjene do tri mesece med upravičenostjo do prejemkov (člen 18).
Exceptional circumstances are circumstances in the interest of terminating unemployment, in particular where the unemployed person goes abroad in order to seek employment or to introduce himself to an employer, or to undertake training, or circumstances based on compelling family reasons
Upo�tevne okoli�čine so okoli�čine, ki pripomorejo h končanju obdobja brezposelnosti, zlasti kadar brezposelna oseba odide v tujino z izkazanim namenom, da bi tam na�la zaposlitev ali se zglasila pri delodajalcu ali opravila usposabljanje, ali okoli�čine, ki temeljijo na družinskih razlogih.
Paragraph 23 of the AlVG, entitled ‘Advance pension payments’, is worded as follows:
Člen 23 AlVG z naslovom „Predplačila prejemkov iz naslova pokojninskega sistema“ določa:
Unemployed persons who have applied for
Brezposelne osebe, ki so zaprosile za dodelitev
(1) a benefit on the ground of reduced capacity to work or incapacity to work or temporary benefits from the statutory pension and accident scheme, or
(1) prejemka zaradi zmanj�ane zmožnosti za delo ali invalidnosti ali začasnega prejemka iz naslova zakonskega sistema pokojninskega ali nezgodnega zavarovanja ali
(2) a benefit on the ground of old-age from the pension scheme under the General Law on Social Security, the Gewerbliches Sozialversicherungsgesetz (Law on Industrial Social Security), or the Bauern-Sozialversicherungsgesetz (Law on Farmers’ Social Security), or by way of exceptional retirement benefit under the Nachtschwerarbeitsgesetz (Law on Strenuous and Night Employment), may be granted unemployment benefit or emergency benefit, by way of advance, until the decision on their application for these benefits.
(2) prejemka iz naslova starostnega zavarovanja iz splo�nega sistema socialnih zavarovanj ali na podlagi zakonika o socialni varnosti ali iz naslova sistema socialnih zavarovanj za trgovce ali kmete ali iz naslova posebne pokojnine na podlagi zakona o nočnem delu, lahko do odločitve o njihovem zahtevku za dodelitev teh prejemkov prejemajo predplačilo nadomestila za brezposelnost ali nujne pomoči.
An advance grant of unemployment benefit or emergency benefit may be made if
Za dodelitev predplačila nadomestila za brezposelnost ali nujne pomoči je potrebno,
(1) apart from capacity to work, willingness to work and readiness to work, the requirements for a claim to these benefits are satisfied,
(1) da so razen pogojev o nezmožnosti za delo, pripravljenosti delati in razpoložljivosti iz člena 7(3)(1) izpolnjeni drugi pogoji za upravičenost do teh prejemkov;
(2) on the basis of the existing circumstances it is likely that the social security benefits will be granted, and
(2) da obstoječe okoli�čine omogočajo, da se a priori predvidi dodelitev prejemkov iz naslova socialnega zavarovanja, in
(3) in the case of number 2 of subparagraph 1, there is an additional confirmation from the pension provider that it is anticipated that for reasons relating to the ground of the application it will not be possible to establish whether there is an obligation to pay the benefit within the two months following the relevant date for the pension.
(3) da je v primeru iz odstavka 1(2) ustanova za pokojninsko zavarovanje poleg tega izdala dokazilo, na podlagi katerega je mogoče predvideti, da ne bo mogoče določiti načela obveznosti izplačila prejemkov v dveh mesecih po datumu začetka pravice do pokojnine.
Where an application is made for a payment under number 1 of subparagraph 1, a person shall also be regarded as unemployed if his existing contract of employment no longer entitles him to wages and his entitlement to sick pay has been exhausted.
Prav tako je treba priznati položaj brezposelnosti iz naslova odstavka 1(1), če se na podlagi obstoječega delovnega razmerja ne izplačuje več nobeno plačilo in je prenehala upravičenost do denarnega prejemka iz naslova zdravstvenega zavarovanja.
The advance shall equal the unemployment benefit (or emergency benefit) payable subject to a maximum of one thirtieth of the average amount of the benefits, including child supplements, available under numbers 1 and 2 of subparagraph 1.
Predplačilo se odobri v vi�ini nadomestila za brezposelnost (ali nujne pomoči), ki se izplača na podlagi odstavka 1(1) ali (2) v vi�ini zgornje meje, enake eni tridesetini povprečnega zneska prejemkov, skupaj z otro�kim dodatkom.
Where the regional office of the Employment Service is made aware by a written notice from the social security provider that the anticipated benefit will be lower, the advance payment is to be reduced accordingly.
Če je regionalna podružnica urada za zaposlovanje na podlagi pisnega obvestila nosilca socialne varnosti obve�čena, da bo predviden prejemek nižji, se izplačano predplačilo ustrezno zmanj�a.
Where number 2 of subparagraph 1 applies, the advance shall be granted retroactively with effect from the relevant date for the pension, provided that the applicant for a pension has applied within 14 days of the issue of confirmation under number 3 of subparagraph 2.
Predplačilo se dodeli za nazaj v primeru iz odstavka 1(2) od dneva nastanka upravičenosti do pokojnine, če je zadevna oseba vložila zahtevek v �tirinajstih dneh po izdaji potrdila iz odstavka 2(3).
If a regional office has granted an advance under subparagraph 1 or unemployment benefit or emergency benefit, any entitlement of the unemployed person to a benefit under number 1 or 2 of subparagraph 1 for the same period shall be transferred to the Federal Republic, for the purpose of supporting employment policy, in the amount of the benefit paid by the regional office, except for sickness insurance contributions, when the regional office makes a claim to the social security provider for the entitlement to be transferred (assignment ipso jure).
Če je regionalna podružnica odobrila predplačilo na podlagi odstavka 1 ali nadomestilo za brezposelnost ali nujno pomoč, se pravica brezposelne osebe do prejemka na podlagi odstavka 1(1) ali (2) za isto obdobje prenese na zvezno državo zaradi vodenja politike trga dela v vi�ini prejemka, ki ga je odobrila regionalna podružnica, razen dajatev za zdravstveno zavarovanje, če regionalna podružnica uveljavlja prenos pri ustanovi za socialno zavarovanje (zakonski prenos).
The assignment of the claim is limited to the amounts to be paid retroactively and shall be satisfied first.
Pravica do prejemka se prenese samo do vi�ine �e dolgovanih zneskov in mora biti poplačana najprej.
Sickness insurance contributions paid out of the unemployment insurance fund (Paragraph 42(3)) for the period identified in subparagraph 5 shall be reimbursed by statutory sickness insurance funds through the Hauptverband der österreichischen Sozialversicherungsträger (Principal Association of Austrian Social Security Funds), at the percentage laid down by Paragraph 73(2) of the General Law on Social Security of amounts which are reimbursed by pension funds in accordance with subparagraph 5.
Dajatve za zdravstveno zavarovanje, izplačane iz sredstev zavarovanja za primer brezposelnosti (člen 42(3)) za obdobje iz odstavka 5, morajo povrniti nosilci zakonskega sistema zdravstvenega zavarovanja prek zveze avstrijskih ustanov za socialno zavarovanje glede na odstotni delež, določen v členu 73(2) ASVG, ki se uporablja za zneske, ki so jih povrnile ustanove za pokojninsko zavarovanje na podlagi odstavka 5.
If a pension is not awarded under subparagraph 1, the advance shall be regarded as unemployment benefit or emergency benefit, as the case may be, for so long as and in the amount in which it is paid, so that in particular there shall be no general retroactive payment of any shortfall and the period of payment shall be shortened in accordance with Paragraph 18.’
Če se pokojnina na podlagi odstavka 1 zavrne, se predplačilo za odobrena obdobje in znesek �teje za nadomestilo za brezposelnost ali nujno pomoč, to pa pomeni zlasti, da se naknadno ne izvr�i nobeno plačilo morebitne razlike in da se trajanje prejemka skraj�a na podlagi člena 18.“
On 14 April 2000 he applied to the Austrian Pension Benefits Authority for an in -capacity pension under the statutory retirement pension scheme.
Pri avstrijskemu organu za pokojninsko zavarovanje je 14. aprila 2000 zaprosil za dodelitev invalidske pokojnine na podlagi zakonskega pokojninskega zavarovanja.
That applica- tion having been rejected, he brought an action against that decision.
Ker je bila ta pro�nja zavrnjena, je vložil tožbo zoper to odločitev.
While those judicial proceedings were ongoing, the Employment Service granted Mr Petersen an advance in accordance with Paragraph 23 of the AlVG.
Med tem sodnim postopkom je Arbeitsmarktservice dodelil J. Petersnu predplačilo na podlagi člena 23 AlVG. J.
In its decision, the national court points out that the exportability of the benefit at issue in the main proceedings depends on whether it is regarded as an ‘unemployment benefit’ or an ‘invalidity benefit’ under Article 4(1) of Regulation No 1408/71, since Article 10(1) thereof provides for exportability in the second case whereas Article 69 of the regulation limits exportability in the first case to a particular situation which is not relevant in the main proceedings.
Predložitveno sodi�če v svoji odločbi opozarja, da je obstoj možnosti, da se prejemek, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, izplača v tujino, odvisna od njene opredelitve kot „dajatev za brezposlenost [prejemek za brezposelnost]“ ali „invalidska dajatev [prejemek za invalidnost]“ v smislu člena 4(1) Uredbe �t. 1408/71, saj člen 10(1) te uredbe določa možnost prenosa prejemka za invalidnost, medtem ko člen 69 te iste uredbe možnost prenosa prejemka za brezposelnost omejuje le na en primer, ki pa za zadevo v glavni stvari ni upo�teven.
In the national court’s view, the benefit at issue in the main proceedings has elements of both of those benefits.
Po mnenju tega sodi�ča ima prejemek, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, sestavine obeh teh prejemkov.
On the one hand, it is paid from unemployment benefit funds and requires the applicant to be unemployed and to have completed the eligibility period for unemployment benefit.
Po eni strani naj bi se namreč izplačeval iz sredstev zavarovanja za primer brezposelnosti, kadar je prosilec brez zaposlitve in izpolnjuje pogoj trajanja zavarovanja za primer brezposelnosti.
PETERSEN not required to be capable of working, willing to work and available for work.
PETERSEN spadal med prejemke zakonskega pokojninskega in nezgodnega zavarovanja, dodelitev tega prejemka pa naj ne bi bila odvisna od tega, ali je prosilec zmožen za delo, ali je pripravljen delati in ali je brezposeln.
In the national court’s view, if the benefit at issue in the main proceedings is to be regarded as an ‘unemployment benefit’ within the meaning of the abovementioned provision, the question arises as to whether the suspension of benefits where the person is abroad is compatible with Article 39 EC, given that, by contrast with the case provided for by Article 69 of Regulation No 1408/71, there is no supervision by the Employment Service as regards readiness to take up employment, whether in Austria or in another Member State.
Če je treba sporni prejemek, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, �teti za „dajatev za brezposelnost [prejemek za brezposelnost]“ v smislu te določbe, se po mnenju predložitvenega sodi�ča zastavi vpra�anje, ali je začasna ustavitev upravičenosti do prejemkov v primeru bivanja v tujini skladno s členom 39 ES, glede na to, da – v nasprotju s primerom iz člena 69 Uredbe �t. 1408/71 – ni predpisan nadzor Arbeitsmarktservice nad tem, ali obstaja volja zasesti delovno mesto v Avstriji ali drugi državi članici.
Does Article 39 EC preclude a national provision which provides that — apart from a discretion available on application by the unemployed person in cases of exceptional circumstances for up to three months — the claim to the benefit is suspended if the unemployed person lives abroad (in another Member State)?’
1408/71: ali člen 39 ES nasprotuje določbi nacionalnega prava, da se pravica do tega prejemka začasno ustavi – razen v primeru izjeme za obdobje največ treh mesecev, ki se odobri samo na zahtevo brezposelne osebe, če so izpolnjeni zahtevani pogoji – če brezposelna oseba prebiva v tujini (v drugi državi članici)?“
In its first question, the national court is seeking to determine the nature of a benefit such as the one at issue in the main proceedings.
S prvim vpra�anjem želi predložitveno sodi�če ugotoviti kak�ne so značilnosti prejemka, kot je ta, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari.
It asks, essentially, whether such a benefit is to be regarded as an ‘invalidity benefit’ within the meaning of Article 4(1)(b) of Regulation No 1408/71 or an ‘unemployment benefit’ within the meaning of Article 4(1)(g) thereof.
V bistvu spra�uje, ali je treba tak prejemek �teti kot „invalidsko dajatev [prejemek za invalidnost]“ v smislu člena 4(1)(b) Uredbe �t. 1408/71 ali kot „dajatev za brezposelnost [prejemek za brezposelnost]“ v smislu odstavka 1(g) tega člen.
In the present case, it is not disputed that that is the case in regard to the benefit at issue in the main proceedings since the grant of the benefit depends on objective criteria laid down in Paragraph 23 of the AlVG and the competent authorities do not have the power to assess the individual needs of the applicant; furthermore, the benefit is intended to cover, according to the particular case, the risk of invalidity or unemployment, which appear in Article 4(1)(b) and (g) of Regulation No 1408/71.
V obravnavani zadevi ni sporno, da to velja za prejemek, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, ker je njegova dodelitev odvisna od objektivnih meril, ki so zakonsko določena v členu 23 AlVG, pri čemer pristojni organi nimajo možnosti individualne presoje potreb prosilca, in ker je ta prejemek glede na okoli�čine namenjen pokrivanju tveganja invalidnosti ali brezposelnosti, ki sta navedena v členu 4(1)(b) in (g) Uredbe �t. 1408/71.
With regard to determining the precise nature of the benefit at issue in the main proceedings, it is clear from the Court’s caselaw that social security benefits must be regarded, irrespective of the characteristics peculiar to different national legal systems, as being of the same kind when their purpose and object as well as the basis on which they are calculated and the conditions for granting them are identical.
Glede natančne opredelitve značilnosti prejemka, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, iz sodne prakse Sodi�ča izhaja, da je treba neodvisno od posebnosti različnih nacionalnih zakonodaj �teti, da imajo prejemki zato, da bi bili opredeljeni kot prejemki socialne varnosti, enake značilnosti, če so njihovi predmet in cilj ter tudi osnova za izračun in pogoji za njihovo dodelitev enaki.
The question whether a benefit such as the one at issue in the main proceedings is to be regarded as an ‘invalidity benefit’ or an ‘unemployment benefit’ within the meaning of Article 4(1)(b) or (g) of Regulation No 1408/71 must be considered in the light of those principles.
Na podlagi teh načel je treba ugotoviti, ali je treba prejemek, kot je ta, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, obravnavati kot „invalidsko dajatev [prejemek za invalidnost]“ ali „dajatev za brezposelnost [prejemek za brezposelnost]“ v smislu člena 4(1)(b) ali (g), Uredbe �t. 1408/71.
With regard, first, to the purpose and object of the benefit at issue in the main proceedings, it is clear from the provisions of Paragraph 23 of the AlVG, and in
Najprej, kar zadeva predmet in namen prejemka, ki je obravnavan v postopku v glavni stvari, iz določb člena 23 AlVG, predvsem iz njegovih odstavkov od 1 do 3, izhaja,
