103 — The Community Charter of Fundamental Social Rights for Workers was adopted at the European Council meeting held on 9 December 1989 in Strasbourg and is set out in Commission Document COM (89) 471 of 2 October 1989.
103 – Listina Skupnosti o temeljnih socialnih pravicah delavcev je bila sprejeta med zasedanjem Evropskega sveta 9. decembra 1989 v Strasbourgu in je objavljena v dokumentu Komisije COM (89) 471 z dne 2. oktobra 1989.
Article 7 of the Charter is worded as follows: ‘The completion of the internal market must lead to an improvement in the living and working conditions of workers in the European Community.
Točka 7 te listine določa: „Dokončno oblikovanje notranjega trga mora izbolj�ati življenjske in delovne razmere delavcev v Evropski skupnosti.
This process must result from an approximation of these conditions while the improvement is being maintained, as regards in particular the duration and organisation of working time and forms of employment other than open-ended contracts, such as fixedterm contracts, parttime working, temporary work and seasonal work.’ The first paragraph of Article 10 of the Charter adds: ‘According to the arrangements applying in each country … [e]very worker of the European Community shall have a right to adequate social protection …’
Ta proces mora biti rezultat usklajevanja teh razmer, pri čemer se ohranjajo izbolj�ave, zlasti v zvezi z delovnim časom in organizacijo delovnega časa ter v zvezi z oblikami zaposlovanja, ki jih ne urejajo pogodbe za nedoločen čas, kot so denimo pogodbe za določen čas, delo s kraj�im delovnim časom, začasno delo in sezonsko delo.“ Točka 10, prva alinea, te listine dodaja: „V skladu z ureditvijo, ki velja v posamezni državi […] ima vsak delavec Evropske skupnosti pravico do ustrezne socialne za�čite […]“.
101 — In the preamble to the EU Treaty, the importance of fundamental social rights is confirmed (fourth recital) and the objective of economic and social progress emphasised (eighth recital).
101 – V preambuli Pogodbe EU je potrjena zavezanost temeljnim socialnim pravicam (četrta uvodna izjava) in odločenost k spodbujanju gospodarskega in socialnega razvoja (osma uvodna izjava).
104 — The European Social Charter was signed by Member States of the Council of Europe on 18 October 1961 in Turin.
104 – Evropsko socialno listino so države članice Sveta Evrope podpisale v Torinu 18. oktobra 1961.
Paragraphs (2) and (4) of Part I of the Charter emphasise the right of all workers to just conditions of work and to a fair remuneration, albeit that that right is to be considered as a declared aim (see Part III, Article 20(1)(a) of the Charter).
V I. delu, točki 2 in 4, te listine je poudarjena pravica vseh delavcev do pravičnih pogojev dela in do pravičnega plačila, pri čemer je treba to pravico �teti za zastavljen cilj (glej III. del, člen 20(1)(a) te listine).
102 — In the preamble to the EC Treaty, the importance of economic and social progress is highlighted (second recital) and the constant improvements of the living and working conditions of the peoples of Europe defined as an essential objective (third recital). See in that regard also Defrenne II (cited in footnote 48), paragraphs 10 and 11.
102 – V preambuli Pogodbe ES je poudarjen pomen gospodarskega in socialnega napredka (druga uvodna izjava), kot temeljni cilj pa je opredeljeno nenehno izbolj�evanje življenjskih razmer in delovnih pogojev narodov Evrope (tretja uvodna izjava); k temu glej tudi sodbo Defrenne II (navedena v opombi 48, točki 10 in 11).
105 — Del Cerro Alonso (cited in footnote 3), paragraph 38.
105 – Sodba Del Cerro Alonso (navedena v opombi 3, točka 38).
As far as pensions, specifically, are concerned, however, one further qualification is required: such financial terms of an employment contract may be regarded as employment conditions within the meaning of Clause 4 of the Framework Agreement only if they relate to benefits in the nature of a retirement or occupational pension awarded by the employer, not, however, to benefits under general statutory social secur- ity schemes.
Kar pa zadeva posebej pokojnine, je potrebna �e ena omejitev: v smislu določbe 4 okvirnega sporazuma je mogoče kot pogoje zaposlitve �teti take finančne pogoje pogodbe o zaposlitvi le takrat, če zadevajo dajatve, ki imajo naravo pokojnine, ki jo priznava delodajalec, ali poklicne pokojnine, ne pa nasprotno dajatev splo�nih obveznih sistemov socialne varnosti.
That need for protection suggests that the scope of the prohibition of discrimination cannot be limited only to employment conditions that are entirely unrelated to pay.
Ta potreba po za�čiti govori proti omejevanju področja uporabe prepovedi diskriminacije zgolj na pogoje zaposlitve, ki nimajo nobene zveze s plačo.
Further, the reference to the principle of pro rata temporis in Clause 4(2) of the Framework Agreement shows that the scope of the prohibition of discrimination may also extend to payments.
Na to, da se lahko področje uporabe prepovedi diskriminacije razteza tudi na denarne dajatve, med drugim kaže sklicevanje na načelo pro rata temporis v določbi 4(2) okvirnega sporazuma.
In fact, that principle can only be applied to divisible performance, including, in particular, payments such as salaries, wage supplements and certain premiums.
To načelo se nasploh lahko uporabi le pri deljivih dajatvah, h katerim spadajo zlasti denarne dajatve, kot so plače, dodatki k plači in določene nagrade.
It is clear from the caselaw relating to equal treatment of men and women that only retirement or occupational pensions are covered by the employment relationship and are awarded on the basis of that relationship.
Pogled na sodno prakso glede enakega obravnavanja mo�kih in žensk pokaže, da le prve dajatve spadajo k delovnemu razmerju in so priznane na njegovi podlagi.
106 That caselaw can be applied to the framework agreement on fixedterm work, as the social partners did not intend the Framework Agreement to cover issues relating to statutory social security arrangements.
106To sodno prakso je mogoče prenesti na okvirni sporazum o delu za določen čas.
Instead, they recognised that such issues are left to the discretion of the Member States. 107
Kajti namen socialnih partnerjev ni, da s tem okvirnim sporazumom uredijo vpra�anja obveznega sistema socialne varnosti; nasprotno upo�tevajo, da o takih vpra�anjih odločajo države članice. 107
107 — Fifth paragraph in the preamble to the Framework Agreement.
107 – Peti odstavek preambule okvirnega sporazuma.
The fact that the Framework Agreement makes a distinction between statutory and occupational social security systems is apparent in the fifth and sixth paragraphs of the preamble to the Agreement.
To, da okvirni sporazum razlikuje med obveznimi in poklicnimi sistemi socialnega varstva, izhaja tudi iz primerjave petega in �estega odstavka njegove preambule.
Accordingly, both the meaning and purpose of Clause 4 of the Framework Agreement and also the legal context of that provision would suggest that the term ‘employment conditions’ covers remuneration and pensions.
Po vsem navedenem govorijo tako smisel in namen določbe 4 okvirnega sporazuma kot tudi sobesedilo te določbe v prid vključitvi osebnih prejemkov in pokojnin v pojem pogojev zaposlitve.
Interpretation in conformity with primary law in the light of Article 137(5) EC
Razlaga, ki je v skladu s primarnim pravom, glede na člen 137(5) ES nedoločni pojem pogojev zaposlitve, razlagati ob upo�tevanju meja, ki morebiti izhajajo iz pravne podlage Direktive 1999/70.
It remains to be considered whether higher-ranking law precludes the term ‘employment conditions’ in Clause 4 of the framework agreement on fixedterm work from covering pay and pensions.
Preučiti je �e treba, ali primarno pravo nasprotuje vključitvi osebnih prejemkov in pokojnin v pojem pogojev zaposlitve v skladu z določbo 4 okvirnega sporazuma o delu za določen čas.
Directive 1999/70 was adopted on the legal basis of Article 139(2) EC, which gives the Council power to implement agreements concluded between management and labour at Community level in the areas covered by Article 137 EC.
Pravna podlaga za sprejetje Direktive 1999/70 je bil člen 139(2) ES, ki na Svet prena�a pristojnost za izvajanje sporazumov socialnih partnerjev, sklenjenih na ravni Skupnosti, v zadevah iz člena 137 ES.
According to Article 137(1)(b) EC, those include working conditions, although Article 137(5) EC goes on to exclude pay from the scope of that provision.
K tem zadevam v skladu s členom 137(1)(b) ES spadajo delovni pogoji, pri čemer pa člen 137(5) ES spet izvzema plače iz področja uporabe te določbe.
The scope of provisions of secondary legislation cannot validly exceed that of their legal basis.
Področje uporabe določb sekundarne zakonodaje ne more prekoračiti področja uporabe njihove vsakokratne pravne podlage.
108To ensure that that is so, secondary law must be interpreted and applied so as to render it consistent with primary law since, on that point, the Court has consistently held that, if the wording of secondary Community law is open to more than one interpretation, preference should be given to the interpretation which renders the provision consistent with the EC Treaty rather than to the interpretation which leads to its being incompatible with the Treaty. 109
108 Sekundarno zakonodajo je treba, da bi se to zagotovilo, razlagati in uporabljati v skladu s primarno zakonodajo; kajti iz ustaljene sodne prakse izhaja, da je treba, kadar se besedilo sekundarne zakonodaje Skupnosti lahko razlaga na več načinov, dati prednost tisti razlagi, po kateri bo določba v skladu s Pogodbo ES, ne pa tisti, na podlagi katere bo ugotovljena nezdružljivost s to. 109
108 — Case C-65/04 Commission v United Kingdom [2006] ECR I-2239, paragraph 27.
108 – Sodba z dne 9. marca 2006 v zadevi Komisija proti Združenemu kraljestvu (C-65/04, ZOdl., str. I-2239, točka 27).
Interpreting that term alone, however, does not provide any insight into what is meant by the fact that, according to Article 137(5) EC, that article ‘shall not apply’
Sama razlaga tega pojma pa �e ne pojasni, kaj pomeni, da se določbe člena 137 ES v skladu z njegovim petim odstavkom „ne
OPINION OF MRS KOKOTT — CASE C-268/06 to pay.
KOKOTT – ZADEVA C-268/06 uporabljajo“ za plače.
Therefore, account must be taken also of the positioning of Article 137(5) EC, in addition to the meaning and purpose of that provision.
V tem smislu je treba upo�tevati tudi sistematično umestitev člena 137(5) ES ter smisel in namen te določbe.
In addition, Article 137(5) EC aims to prevent Community-wide standardisation by the Community legislature of the wage levels applicable in each of the Member States, since such a levelling out — albeit possibly only partial — of national, regional and occupational differences in wage levels by the Community legislature would represent significant interference in competition between undertakings operating in the internal market.
Poleg tega je cilj člena 137(5) ES ta, da se normodajalcu Skupnosti prepreči poenotenje ravni mezd, ki veljajo v državah članicah, na območju celotne Skupnosti. Tak�no – lahko tudi le delno – izravnavanje nacionalnih, regionalnih in poklicnih razlik glede ravni mezd s strani normodajalca Skupnosti bi namreč pomenilo velik poseg v konkurenco, ki obstaja med podjetji na notranjem trgu.
It would also go well beyond the measures intended under Article 137(1) EC to enable the Community to support and complement the activities of the Member States in the field of social policy.
Močno bi tudi presegalo ukrepe Skupnosti v zvezi s podpiranjem in dopolnjevanjem dejavnosti držav članic na področju socialne politike, kar je namen člena 137(1) ES.
As a derogation, Article 137(5) EC is to be interpreted strictly, as the Court recently held in Del Cerro Alonso.
Ker je člen 137(5) ES izjema, ga je treba, kot je pred kratkim ugotovilo Sodi�če v sodbi Del Cerro Alonso, ozko razlagati.
110The provision cannot, therefore, be interpreted as excluding from the scope of Article 137 EC anything that has any sort of link with pay, as otherwise many of the fields listed in Article 137(1) EC would — in practical terms — be meaningless. 111
110 Določba se torej ne sme razumeti tako, da izključuje iz področja uporabe člena 137 ES vse, kar je kakor koli povezano s plačo; drugače bi bila �tevilna področja, na�teta v členu 137(1) ES, dejansko brez pomena. 111
Against that background, Article 137(5) EC prevents the Community legislature, for example, from exerting any influence on wage levels in the Member States by fixing a minimum wage.
Tako na primer člen 137(5) ES preprečuje normodajalcu Skupnosti, da bi z določitvijo minimalnih mezd vplival na raven mezd v državah članicah.
Nor can the Community legislature provide, for example, for annual inflationary compensation, introduce an upper limit for annual pay increases or regulate the amount of pay for overtime or for shiftwork, public holiday overtime or night work.
Prav tako normodajalec Skupnosti na primer ne sme predvideti letne izravnave inflacije, uvesti zgornje meje za letno povi�anje mezd ali urejati vi�ine nadomestila za nadurno delo ter vi�ine dodatkov za izmensko, praznično in nočno delo.
Instead, the meaning and purpose of Article 137(5) EC is primarily to protect the social partners’ autonomy in collect- ive bargaining from being restricted, as evidenced not least by the close association between pay and the other matters excluded from the Community’s powers: the right of association, the right to strike and the right to impose lock-outs, which are particularly important in relation to fixing pay and, accordingly, are referred to ‘in the same breath’ as pay in Article 137(5) EC.
V prvi vrsti je smisel in namen člena 137(5) ES bolj ta, da se pred vplivi zavaruje avtonomija socialnih partnerjev glede kolek­tivnih pogodb. To nenazadnje izhaja tudi iz tesne povezanosti plače s preostalimi področji, izvzetimi iz pristojnosti Skupnosti: pravica združevanja, pravica do stavke in pravica do izprtja so pomembne zlasti v zvezi z določitvijo plače; zato so v členu 137(5) ES navedene v isti sapi s plačami.
110 — Del Cerro Alonso (cited in footnote 3), paragraph 39; see also, in relation to a restrictive interpretation of derogating provisions in primary law, Case C-349/03 Commission v United Kingdom [2005] ECR I-7321, paragraph 43.
110 – Sodba Del Cerro Alonso (navedena v opombi 3, točka 39); glede restriktivne razlage izjem v primarni zakonodaji glej tudi sodbo z dne 21. julija 2005 v zadevi Komisija proti Združenemu kraljestvu (C-349/03, ZOdl., str. I-7321, točka 43).
By contrast, Article 137(5) EC does not prevent the Community legislature from adopting legislation with financial consequences, such as in relation to working conditions (Article 137(1)(b) EC) or the improvement of the working environment
Nasprotno pa člen 137(5) ES normodajalcu Skupnosti ne preprečuje, da določi pravila s finančnimi učinki, na primer glede delovnih pogojev (člen 137(1)(b) ES) ali glede
111 — Del Cerro Alonso (cited in footnote 3), paragraph 41.
111 – Sodba Del Cerro Alonso (navedena v opombi 3, točka 41).
IMPACT to protect workers’ health and safety (Article 137(1)(a) EC).
115 izbolj�anja delovnega okolja za varovanje zdravja in varnosti delavcev (člen 137(1)(a) ES).
Thus, the Community may, for example, lay down requirements for national employment law, resulting in a worker’s right to be paid for his annual leave.
Tako lahko na primer Skupnost določi podlago za nacionalno delovno pravo, ki pripelje do pravice delavca do plačanega letnega dopusta. 112
In the same vein, the Court recently also clarified in Del Cerro Alonso that it is only the level of pay that is removed from the Community legislature’s competence by Article 137(5) EC. 113The Court added that fixing the level of the various constituent parts of a worker’s pay continues to be a matter that is entirely for the competent bodies in the Member States concerned. 114
Sodi�če je v istem smislu nazadnje v sodbi Del Cerro Alonso tudi pojasnilo, da člen 137(5) ES izvzema iz pristojnosti normodajalca Skupnosti zgolj višino plač; 113 dodalo je, da določitev vi�ine različnih sestavnih elementov plačila delavcev �e naprej spada v izključno domeno pristojnih organov posameznih držav članic. 114
Introducing prohibitions on discrimination, as in Clause 4 of the framework agreement on fixedterm work, 116does not amount to interference in the fixing of wage levels, nationally or regionally or even within an undertaking.
Uvedba prepovedi diskriminacije, kot je tista v določbi 4 okvirnega sporazuma o delu za določen čas 116, namreč ne posega v določitev vi�ine samih mezd na nacionalni ali regionalni ravni ali tudi znotraj podjetij.
It simply ensures that par -ticular groups of workers are protected from disadvantage with regard to their conditions of work or employment, including financial disadvantage.
Določenim skupinam delavcev, glede njihovih delovnih pogojev oziroma pogojev zaposlitve, le zagotavlja za�čito pred prikraj�anji, tudi tak�nimi finančne narave.
Such prohibitions of discrimination are an essential component of the measures by which the Community supports and complements the Member States’ social policy, which even Article 137(5) EC does not seek to prohibit.
Tak�ne prepovedi diskriminacije so bistveni sestavni del ukrepov Skupnosti v zvezi s podpiranjem in dopolnjevanjem na področju socialne politike držav članic, namen člena 137(5) ES pa ni njihova prepoved.
Whether, by contrast, particular workers or groups of workers are entitled
Ali nasprotno plačilo ali njegovi posamezni sestavni elementi pripadajo določenim delavcem ali njihovim skupinam v okviru
At the hearing, the United Kingdom Government contended that fixedterm workers should merely be granted the same remuneration components as comparable
Na ustni obravnavi je vlada Združenega kraljestva navedla, da je treba zaposlenim za določen čas zagotoviti zgolj enake sestavne
112 — This was the case in Article 7 of Directive 2003/88/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 November 2003 concerning certain aspects of the organisation of working time (OJ 2003 L 299, p. 9).
112 – Glej na primer člen 7 Direktive 2003/88/ES Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 4. novembra 2003 o določenih vidikih organizacije delovnega časa (UL L 299, str.

18), ki je že vsebovala enako določbo.
The fact that Article 118a of the EC Treaty, a precursor to Article 137(1)(a) EC, constituted the appropriate legal basis for Directive 93/104 was confirmed by the Court in Case C-84/94 United Kingdom v Council [1996] ECR I-5755, in particular paragraphs 45 and 49.
Sodi�če je v sodbi z dne 12. novembra 1996 v zadevi Združeno kraljestvo proti Svetu (C-84/94, Recueil, str. I-5755, zlasti točki 45 in 49) potrdilo, da je bil člen 118a Pogodbe ES, ki je predhodnik člena 137(1)(a) ES, ustrezna pravna podlaga za Direktivo 93/104.
115 — Del Cerro Alonso (cited in footnote 3), paragraph 47.
115 – Sodba Del Cerro Alonso (navedena v opombi 3, točka 47).
116 — A further such prohibition of discrimination is to be found, for example, in Clause 4 of the framework agreement on parttime work annexed to Council Directive 97/81/EC of 15 December 1997 concerning the Framework Agreement on parttime work concluded by UNICE, CEEP and the ETUC (OJ 1998 L 14, p. 9).
116 – Tak�no podobno prepoved diskriminacije na primer vsebuje določba 4 okvirnega sporazuma o delu s kraj�im delovnim časom, ki je priložen k Direktivi Sveta 97/81/ES z dne 15. decembra 1997 o okvirnem sporazumu o delu s kraj�im delovnim časom, sklenjenim med UNICE, CEEP in ETUC (UL 1998, L 14, str. 9).
114 — Del Cerro Alonso (cited in footnote 3), paragraphs 45 and 46.
114 – Sodba Del Cerro Alonso (navedena v opombi 3, točki 45 in 46).
Clause 4(1) of the Framework Agreement does not, incidentally, provide otherwise, neither does the reference to the pro rata temporis principle in Clause 4(2).
Določba 4(1) okvirnega sporazuma ne izraža ničesar drugega kot napotilo na načelo pro rata temporis iz določbe 4(2) okvirnega sporazuma.
permanent workers, but not necessarily in the same amount.
dele nadomestila kot primerljivim delavcem, zaposlenim za nedoločen čas, ne pa nujno v isti vi�ini.
According to the judgment in Del Cerro Alonso, Article 137(5) EC gives the competent national authorities and unions and management the freedom to set each remuneration component at a different level for fixedterm workers and for com -parable permanent employees.
V skladu s sodbo Del Cerro Alonso zagotavlja člen 137(5) ES pristojnim nacionalnim organom in tarifnim partnerjem svobodo, da vsakokrat različno določijo sestavne dele nadomestila za zaposlene za določen čas in za primerljive zaposlene za nedoločen čas.
All in all, Article 137(5) EC does not preclude the term ‘employment conditions’ in Clause 4 of the framework agreement on fixedterm work from covering remuneration and pensions.
Člen 137(5) ES zato ne nasprotuje vključitvi osebnih prejemkov in pokojnin v pojem pogojev zaposlitve v skladu z določbo 4 okvirnega sporazuma o delu za določen čas.
I do not share that view.
Temu mnenju se ne pridružujem.
While Article 137(5) EC leaves it to the competent national authorities and to unions and management to set the level of individual remuneration components, it cannot serve as a pretext for discriminating between par -ticular groups of workers.
Sicer člen 137(5) ES pristojnim nacionalnim organom in tarifnim partnerjem prepu�ča, da določijo vi�ino posameznih sestavnih delov nadomestila, vendar ta predpis po svoje ne more služiti kot pretveza za diskriminacijo med različnimi skupinami delavcev.
Rather, the competent national authorities and unions and management must comply with Community law when exercising the competence reserved to them by Article 137(5) EC, 117not least with the general legal principles such as the principle of equal treatment and non-discrimination.
Veliko bolj morajo pristojni nacionalni organi in tarifni partnerji pri izvr�evanju svojih pristojnosti, ki jih imajo na podlagi člena 137(5) ES, upo�tevati pravo Skupnosti 117, nenazadnje tudi splo�na pravna načela, kot je na primer načelo enakega obravnavanja in nediskriminacije.
Consequently, different treatment of fixedterm and of permanent workers so far as concerns the level of the relevant remuneration components can be considered only where it is objectively
Posledično se neenako obravnavanje zaposlenih za določen čas, v razmerju do zaposlenih za nedoločen čas, kar zadeva vi�ino vsakokratnega sestavnega dela nadomestila, upo�teva le takrat, ko je stvarnopravno
Similarly, see Case C-77/02 Steinicke [2003] ECR I-9027, paragraph 63, and Case C-92/02 Kristiansen [2003] ECR I-14597, paragraph 31.
I-9027, točka 63) in z dne 4. decembra 2003 v zadevi Kristiansen (C-92/02, Recueil, str. I-14597, točka 31).
‘Employment conditions’ within the meaning of Clause 4 of the framework agreement on fixedterm work include conditions of an employment contract that relate to remuneration.
K pogojem zaposlitve v smislu določbe 4 okvirnega sporazuma o delu za določen čas spadajo tudi pogoji pogodbe o zaposlitvi, ki zadevajo osebne prejemke.
The same applies to conditions of an employment contract concerning pensions, provided that the latter are in the nature of a retirement or occupational pension awarded by the employer.
Isto velja za pogoje pogodbe o zaposlitvi, ki zadevajo pokojnino, če ima ta naravo pokojnine, ki jo priznava delodajalec, ali poklicne pokojnine.
On the basis of the foregoing considerations I would suggest to the Court that it answer the questions posed by the Labour Court in Dublin as follows:
