Mertens v Raad van bestur van het Uitvoeringsinstituut werknemersverzekeringen C-655/13, [2015] All ER (D) 120 (Feb)

The Court of Justice of the European Union ruled that Art 71(1)(a)(i) of Regulation No 1408/71 (on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community), as amended, should be interpreted as meaning that a frontier worker who, immediately after the end of a full-time employment relationship with an employer in a member state, had been employed on a part-time basis by another employer in that same member state had the status of a partially unemployed frontier worker within the meaning of that provision.
