Samenvatting

The 9th Senate of the German Federal Labour Court (Bundesarbeitsgericht, ‘BAG’) has (once again) submitted a request for a preliminary ruling to the ECJ concerning leave law. It is asking for clarification as to whether the employer is obliged under EU law to (again) grant paid leave to an employee who, although not ill during the leave itself, had to remain in quarantine at home by official order during this period.
