Question juridique clé
Whether employees of a public-law local community engaged in forestry are excluded from bad weather compensation.
Solution extraite
They are not excluded solely because they work for a public-law entity; the claim can be granted if the statutory conditions are met.
Motifs extraits
The court relied on prior case law recognizing public-sector employees as generally eligible. The municipality had no tax sovereignty and had to finance forestry wages like a private enterprise, so the compensation did not amount to financing public tasks through unemployment insurance.
