35The Court has held that employees whose contract of employment or employment relationship comes to an end with effect from a date prior to that of the transfer, contrary to Article 4(1), must be regarded as still employed by the undertaking on the date of the transfer, with the result, in particular, that the employer's obligations towards them are automatically transferred from the transferor to the transferee (Case 101/87 Bork International and Others v Foreningen af Arbejdsledere i Danmark [1988] ECR 3057, paragraph 18).
