Judgment of the Court (Fifth Chamber) of 5 November 2014 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Centrale Raad van Beroep — Netherlands) — O. Tümer v Raad van bestuur van het Uitvoeringsinstituut werknemersverzekeringen
(Case C-311/13) (1)
((Protection of employees in the event of the employer’s insolvency - Directive 80/987/EEC - Employee who is a third-country national and who does not hold a valid residence permit - Refusal to grant an insolvency benefit))
(2015/C 007/09)
Language of the case: Dutch
Referring court
Centrale Raad van Beroep
Parties to the main proceedings
Appellant: O. Tümer
Respondent: Raad van bestuur van het Uitvoeringsinstituut werknemersverzekeringen
Operative part of the judgment
Council Directive 80/987/EEC of 20 October 1980 relating to the protection of employees in the event of the insolvency of their employer, as amended by Directive 2002/74/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 September 2002, must be interpreted as precluding national legislation on the protection of employees in the event of the insolvency of their employer, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, under which a third-country national who is not legally resident in the Member State concerned is not to be regarded as an employee with the right to an insolvency benefit — on the basis, in particular, of claims relating to unpaid wages — in the event of his employer’s insolvency, even though that third-country national is recognised under the civil law of the Member State as having the status of an ‘employee’ with an entitlement to pay which could be the subject of an action against his employer before the national courts.
