Language of the case: Spanish
Referring court
Juzgado de lo Social No 33 de Madrid
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant): José Manuel Ortiz Mesonero
Defendant: UTE Luz Madrid Centro
Operative part of the judgment
Council Directive 2010/18/EU of 8 March 2010 implementing the revised Framework Agreement on parental leave concluded by BUSINESSEUROPE, UEAPME, CEEP and ETUC and repealing Directive 96/34/EC must be interpreted as not applying to national legislation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, which provides for a worker’s right, in order to take direct care of minors or dependent family members, to reduce his ordinary hours of work, with a proportional reduction in his salary, without being able, when his usual work system is in shifts with a variable schedule, to benefit from a fixed working schedule while maintaining his ordinary hours of work.
