63It should be noted that the factors relied on by the Polish Government in order to justify the legislation at issue in the main proceedings are not precise and specific factors, characterising the employment condition to which they relate, as required by the case-law referred to in paragraphs 58 and 59 of the present judgment, but rather are similar to a criterion which, in a general and abstract manner, refers exclusively to the duration itself of the employment. Therefore, those factors do not make it possible to ensure that the difference in treatment at issue in the main proceedings responds to a genuine need, as provided for by that case-law.
