Abstract: An unemployed mother makes a request to rejoin the Qualification Group 2 for unemployment assistance. After initial refusal by the competent authority, the applicant appealed to the courts. However, the Bundessozialgericht dismissed the appeal on the ground that the applicant should have a university degree in order to join the qualification group 2. Nonetheless, it raises two key issues: a) the legal framework of the unemployment assistance; b) two kinds of discrimination against the applicant.
