Carratù v Poste Italiane SpA (Case C-361/12); [2013] WLR (D) 490

‘Clause 4(1) of the Framework agreement on fixed term work, annexed to Council Directive 1999/70/EC, could be relied on directly against a state body. The concept of “employment conditions” in clause 4(1) covered the compensation that the employer had pay to an employee on account of the unlawful insertion of a fixed-term clause into his employment contract but did not require the compensation paid in respect of the unlawful insertion of a fixed-term clause into an employment relationship to be treated in the same way as that paid in respect of the unlawful termination of a permanent employment relationship.’
