37It should also be noted that, while it is, admittedly, apparent from the Court’s settled case-law that a period of leave guaranteed by EU law cannot affect the right to take another period of leave guaranteed by that law which has a different purpose from the former (see, to that effect, judgment of 20 January 2009, Schultz-Hoff and Others, C‑350/06 and C‑520/06, EU:C:2009:18, paragraph 26 and the case-law cited), it cannot be inferred from that case-law, which was developed in the context of situations where the periods to which those two respective types of leave related overlapped or coincided, that Member States are required to treat a period of parental leave taken by a worker during the reference period as a period of actual work for the purpose of determining that worker’s paid annual leave entitlement under Directive 2003/88.
