Re:
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Oberster Gerichtshof (Austria) — Interpretation of Articles 1, 2 and 6 of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation (OJ 2000 L 303, p. 16) — Prohibition of all discrimination on grounds of age — National legislation which excludes periods of employment completed before the age of 18 from being taken into account for the purpose of determining the remuneration of contractual public servants
Operative part of the judgment
Articles 1, 2 and 6 of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which, in order not to treat general education less favourably than vocational education and to promote the integration of young apprentices into the labour market, excludes periods of employment completed before the age of 18 from being taken into account for the purpose of determining the incremental step at which contractual public servants of a Member State are graded.
