The principle of <em>\u2018equal treatment\u2019<\/em> under <em>Article\u00a02(2) (a) of\u00a0 Directive 2000\/78 of European Union law<\/em> was submitted wherein discrimination occurred where one person was treated less favourably than another in a comparable situation on account of religion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court was of the view that if the execution of legislation demands bestowing some freedom only upon a certain religion, it was purely detrimental for the others. It also noted that relaxation was not given to perform a particular religious duty, but was subject only to the condition that such an employee must formally belong to one of those churches. Accordingly, it stated that until the Country reinstates measures to abolish this arbitrariness, observance of the principle of equality can be ensured only by granting to persons within the disadvantaged category the same advantages as those enjoyed by persons within the favoured category.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus the principle of <em>Article\u00a021 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union<\/em> was applied which says that until the Member State concerned has amended its legislation restoring an equal treatment towards the \u2018other\u2019 employees, a duty be imposed upon the employer to allow the employee to be absent from work on the prescribed holiday if not compensate him for the same.[Cresco Investigation GmbH v.
