Key legal question
Whether a fence manufacturing and installation business qualifies for bad-weather compensation under Art. 65 AVIV.
Extracted holding
No. The company does not belong to one of the listed eligible trades, and the exclusion is lawful even if some analogous trades are covered.
Extracted reasoning
Eligibility depends on the character of the business, not on isolated activities. The list in Art. 65(1) AVIV is exhaustive; the Federal Council had selection discretion, and the resulting differentiation is not arbitrary merely because similar activities occur in garden or civil-engineering firms as ancillary tasks.
