41It should also be borne in mind that, as is clear from recital 14 in the preamble to Directive 1999/70, from the third paragraph of the preamble to the Framework Agreement, from paragraphs 7 to 10 of the general considerations and from Clause 1 of the Framework Agreement, that agreement is not intended to harmonise all national rules relating to fixed-term employment contracts but simply aims, by determining general principles and minimum requirements, to establish a general framework for ensuring equal treatment for fixed-term workers by protecting them against discrimination and to prevent abuse arising from the use of successive fixed-term work agreements or contracts (see, to that effect, Case C-307/05 Del Cerro Alonso [2007] ECR I-7109, paragraphs 26 and 36, Case C-268/06 Impact [2008] ECR I-2483, paragraph 111, and order of 11 November 2010 in Case C-20/10 Vino, paragraph 54).
