Social policy - Equal treatment for men and women in matters of social security - National legislation excluding married men or widowers from an exemption from social security contributions available to married women, widows and students - Not permissible
( Council Directive 79/7, Art . 4(1 ) )
Article 4(1 ) of Council Directive 79/7/EEC of 19 December 1978 on the progressive implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women in matters of social security must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which reserves to married women, widows and students the possibility of being assimilated to persons not liable to pay any social security contributions without granting the same possibility of exemption from contributions to married men or widowers who for the rest satisfy the same conditions .
