• Resumen

  • The essay analyzes the Katoen ruling of the EU Court of Justice and highlights its relevance from the point of view of Italian port labour regulation. After outlining the reasons why this ruling can be seen as a revirement from the Court’s previous positions on port labour reserves and prohibition of self-handling, the general features of the current Italian port labour legisla-tion are explained, in order to argue for its compatibility with the principles of European law as interpreted by the EU Court of Justice.
