    Parties to the main proceedings

    Applicant: Tevfik Isbir

    Defendant: DB Services GmbH

    Re:

    Request for a preliminary ruling — Bundesarbeitsgericht — Interpretation of Article 3(1)(c) of Directive 96/71/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 1996 concerning the posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services (OJ 1997 L 18, p. 1) — Calculation of the minimum rate of pay — Inclusion of the employer contribution to a multiannual savings plan for the benefit of its employees — Situation in which the employees cannot have access to those assets for several years

    Operative part of the judgment

    Article 3(1)(c) of Directive 96/71/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 1996 concerning the posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services, is to be interpreted as meaning that it does not preclude the inclusion in the minimum wage of elements of remuneration which do not alter the relationship between the service provided by the worker, on the one hand, and the consideration which he receives by way of remuneration for that service, on the other. It is for the national court to verify whether that is the case as regards the elements of remuneration at issue in the main proceedings.
