title: Judgment, 2 September 1987.
abstract: The Court held that the defendant had discriminated against the plaintiff flight hostesses in violation of Article VI of the Constitution when it paid them less in unemployment benefits than it paid men.  The Court rejected an argument that, since flight hostesses were paid less than male employees, their unemployment benefits should be less, ruling that there was no valid reason related to sex to justify the difference in pay.
