34As the Court has previously held, the purpose of Directive 2000/78, as regards employment and occupation, is to combat all forms of discrimination on grounds of disability. The principle of equal treatment enshrined in that field in that directive applies not to a particular category of persons but by reference to the grounds mentioned in Article 1 thereof, which are listed exhaustively (see, to that effect, judgments of 17 July 2008, Coleman, C‑303/06, EU:C:2008:415, paragraphs 38 and 46, and of 21 May 2015, SCMD, C‑262/14, not published, EU:C:2015:336, paragraph 29).
