37As regards, in particular, the compensation granted by an employer to a worker on termination of his employment, the Court has already stated that such compensation is a form of deferred pay to which the worker is entitled by reason of his employment but which is paid to him on termination of the employment relationship with a view to enabling him to adjust to the new circumstances arising from such termination (see Barber, cited above, paragraph 13, and Case C-33/89 Kowalska [1990] ECR I-2591, paragraph 10; and Seymour-Smith and Perez, cited above, paragraph 25).
