    Language of the case: Italian

    Referring court

    Tribunale Amministrativo Regionale per la Sardegna

    Parties to the main proceedings

    Applicant: CO

    Defendant: Comune di Gesturi

    Operative part of the judgment

    Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation, in particular Article 2(2), Article 3(1) and Article 6(1) thereof, must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation prohibiting public administrative authorities from awarding analysis and consultancy roles to retired persons in so far as, first, that legislation pursues a legitimate employment policy and labour market objective and, second, the means deployed to achieve that objective are appropriate and necessary. It is for the referring court to determine whether that is in fact the case in the main proceedings.


    (1)  OJ C 25, 21.1.2019.
