Judgment_paragraph 20 · C-280/94

20As the Court further held in the judgments in Case C-317/93 Nolte [1995] ECR I-4625, paragraph 17, and Case C-444/93 Megner and Scheffel [1995] ECR I-4741, paragraph 16, it follows from that provision that the definition of the working population is very broad, since it covers any worker, including persons who are merely seeking employment, but it does not apply to persons who have never been available for employment or who have ceased to be available for a reason other than the materialization of one of the risks referred to by the directive (see also to this effect Joined Cases 48/88, 106/88 and 107/88 Achterberg-te Riele and Others v Sociale Verzekeringsbank [1989] ECR 1963, paragraph 11).
