71Like indirect discrimination on grounds of sex, as is apparent from paragraphs 45, 49 and 52 of the present judgment, indirect discrimination on grounds of age can be established only if it is shown that national legislation has a negative effect, without justification, on a significantly higher proportion of persons of a certain age compared with other persons. To that end, it is necessary to take into consideration all those workers subject to the national legislation in which the difference in treatment has its origin.
