Wolf v Stadt Frankfurt Am Main [2010] IRLR 244 ECJ (1 other report)
age discrimination | age limit in recruitment | genuine occupational requirement
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has held that a German law restricting applicants to the fire service to individuals under the age of 30 is permissible as a genuine occupational requirement.
Mr Wolf applied for a job in the fire service in Frankfurt, but his application was rejected because he had reached the age of 30.
