Traducción de «Discriminación por razón de embarazo » (Español → Inglés) :

In today’s judgment the Court points out that the principle of equal pay precludes not only direct discrimination but also any unequal treatment through the application of criteria unrelated to sex where such unequal treatment affects considerably more women than men and cannot be justified by objective factors wholly unrelated to discrimination based on sex.
