ECJ Working conditions – Directive 2003/88/EC – Organisation of working time – Right to annual leave – Airline pilots
ECJ Article 7 of Directive 2003/88/EC and clause 3 of the European Agreement: ‘must be interpreted as meaning that an airline pilot is entitled, during his annual leave, not only to the maintenance of his basic salary, but also, first, to all the components intrinsically linked to the performance of the tasks which he is required to carry out under his contract of employment and in respect of which a monetary amount, included in the calculation of his total remuneration, is provided and, second, to all the elements relating to his personal and professional status as an airline pilot. It is for the national court to assess whether the various components comprising that worker’s total remuneration meet those criteria.’
