Consideration 38
Extract:
"A fixed-term appointment will automatically cease to have effect upon expiry. But according to the case law a contract of service, even if for a fixed term, creates in law a relationship of employment; that relationship exists in an administrative context and is subject to a set of staff regulations; and there may therefore be requirements or consequences that go beyond the bounds of the contract as such."

Consideration 5
Extract:
The complainant, a civil servant of the organization who had been sentenced in his country of origin, was released from prison but was not allowed to leave the country. Under duress he wrote a letter applying for early retirement which was forwarded to the organization by his government. The organization accepted the request and rejected the complainant's internal appeal against that decision. The Tribunal quashes the decision. "The organization must reinstate [the complainant] and restore pension and sickness insurance entitlements for himself and his dependants. It shall pay him damages reckoned according to the amount of the salary and allowances he would have been entitled to".

Summary
Extract:
In Judgment 996 the Tribunal set aside the decision to dismiss the complainant and ordered his reinstatement "with full arrears of salary and allowances". In execution of that judgment the ESO reinstated him as a member of its health insurance scheme as from the date of dismissal and deducted the corresponding premiums from his pay. The complainant's objections to the deductions are mistaken. The intention of Judgment 996 was, as far as possible, to put the complainant in the same position as if he had not been dismissed. The Tribunal is satisfied that in respect of health insurance the organisation has complied with the letter and the spirit of the judgment.

"A complaint is receivable under Article VII(3) where the administration fails to take any decision upon the claim within sixty days of the date of notification of it. Once an organisation has accepted the Tribunal's Statute it may not derogate from Article VII(3) by dint of internal rules of its own. The only difference Eurocontrol's own Staff Regulations may make is that it is estopped from objecting to receivability when, in reliance on its own time limit, a staff member has filed a complaint that would be receivable under its Staff Regulations but out of time under Article VII."

Summary
Extract:
The ITU's policy is to guarantee, for staff promoted from the general service to the professional category, that the salary differential resulting from the promotion and during the year following it, as calculated in local currency, will be equivalent to at least one step in the new grade. For that purpose the Union carries out a review of the official's pay on the first anniversary of promotion, known as the "anniversary calculation". The complainant was promoted from grade G.5 to P.2. The difference between his earnings during the year after his promotion to P.2 and the amount he would have earned during the same period at G.5 being greater than a P.2 increment, there was no breach of the material rule.

Consideration 3
Extract:
"Rule 1050.2 provides: 'When a post of indefinite duration, which is filled, is abolished, a reduction in force shall take place, in accordance with procedures established by the Director'. The procedures are set out in detail in the Manual of the WHO, and it is clear that the rules preclude the termination of an appointment until the reduction-in-force procedure has been completed. The notice [given to her] was therefore invalid, and in keeping with the reasoning in Judgment 469 the complainant's contract is renewed by implication and remains in force. She is entitled to payment of the salary and allowances due under her contract less any indemnity of earnings she may have received in the meantime."

Consideration 3
Extract:
"Precedent is clear: even when someone has just a temporary appointment a decision not to renew it must be taken when the contract period is expiring; the administration's decision not to renew must be notified to the employee within the prescribed time limit; and if due notice is not given there will be implied renewal for a further period." The complainant got notice four days too late and the Tribunal held that the extension of his contract by five days to make up the required period of notice had no effect.

Summary
Extract:
To take account of shifts in currency rates when reckoning the pay of officials who changed categories on promotion, the ITU began to follow United Nations practice by adopting in 1988 the so-called "anniversary calculation" system. The complainant, who was promoted in 1985 from grade G.7 to P.2, is seeking to have her pay so reviewed. On 28 January 1986 she wrote to the chief of personnel objecting to the loss of salary she suffered as a result of promotion. On 26 May 1988 she appealed to the Appeal Board. The Tribunal holds that the memorandum of 28 January 1986 cannot be construed either in form or in substance as a request for review under Rule 11.1.2 but was merely a written claim under Rule 3.17.1. Her appeal of 26 May 1988 was patently out of time and the complaint is therefore irreceivable.

Consideration 5
Extract:
The complainant's internal appeal against termination after the extension of his probation is time-barred. He argues "that an unregistered letter from someone other than the Director-General cannot constitute proper notice of dismissal or of extension of probation. [The] plea fails [...]. Provided that the staff member is given official notice of a decision the time limit starts to run and there is no need for special procedural formalities. And the absence of the Director-General's signature can have no effect on the time limit for appeal even though it may in some circumstances warrant setting the decision aside."

Summary
Extract:
In accordance with Circular No. 380 (Series 6) of 3 March 1987, the complainant, who had taken early retirement, was reappointed under a short-term contract. The decision he impugns is one denying him the right to enter internal competitions on the grounds that he had not yet acquired two years' continuous service since his reappointment. The Tribunal holds that the decision was in keeping with Article 4.11 of the Staff Regulations which says that "a former official, on reappointment, shall be regarded for the purpose of these Regulations, as becoming an official for the first time". The complaint is dismissed.

Summary
Extract:
The complainant was granted three concurrent promotions: the first by direct selection from grade G.6 to P.3 with effect from 1 July 1986; the second by personal promotion from G.6 to G.7 with effect from 1 January 1986; and the third as a result of the regrading of his post from G.6 to P.3 with effect from 1 February 1984. The Administration said he could choose between two options: either his promotion to P.3 as from 1 February 1984 would be deemed to have cancelled the earlier ones and, in keeping with Article 3.4.4 of the Staff Regulations, his pensionable remuneration would stay at the level it had reached at that date; or else he might keep the personal promotion and his pensionable remuneration would be at the level it had reached at 1 July 1986. The complainant having refused to choose between the two options, the Administration applied the second one. Insofar as that decision conflicts with the decision to regrade his post P.3 as from 1 February 1984 it cannot stand.

Summary
Extract:
To mark its tenth anniversary celebration the European Patent Organisation granted a bonus to each of "all active permanent employees in post on 1 October 1987". As the complainant was then on unpaid leave "on personal grounds" he did not qualify for the benefit. The Tribunal holds that while the organisation is free to award special bonuses and free to decide who will receive them, it must apply objective criteria when doing so and avoid all arbitrary distinctions. In the instant case the restriction was based on objective criteria founded on provisions in the Staff Regulations.

"A decision taken after the one impugned may, if more favourable, repeal it with retroactive effect, the decision- maker being empowered to withdraw the earlier decision so long as he does not thereby offend against the rights of any third party. The withdrawal may be likened to reversal, and if there happens to be an appeal pending there will be no cause of action."

Consideration 16
Extract:
On 1 April 1987 the ILO brought in a new scale which further lowered pensionable remuneration. Though there is no going back on what was said in earlier judgments, "the complainants may back up their case against the decisions they impugn by citing the earlier ones on the same subject [vide Judgments 832 and 862]. The full set of decisions is material in ruling on the plea of breach of acquired rights even though, if breach there has been, the consequences will touch only the decisions now under challenge."

Consideration 3, Summary
Extract:
The complainant argues that because she had 55 months' seniority at step 11, the upper limit, in her original grade, she should have been granted two further steps on promotion. The Tribunal observes that the Staff Regulations do not provide for the calculation of notional steps in dealing with promotion.

Summary
Extract:
Paragraph 4 of Circular 34 of 15 May 1979 says that "for the purpose of calculating seniority for advancement in the prescribed steps within the relevant grade, the period of part-time work will be taken into account in the same way as in the case of normal full-time work". The Tribunal holds that the EPO's practice of counting part-time work towards seniority for promotion on a pro-rata basis on the principle that promotion is a reward for service rendered is in no way at odds with the guidelines in the material circular as the complainant mistakenly argues.

The complainant's "argument that he was late in discovering that the decision had been unlawful is irrelevant: a time limit is a matter of objective fact and starts when the decision is notified. if that were not so - whatever considerations of equity there might be - there could be no certainty in legal relations between the parties, and such certainty is the whole point and purpose of time limits. An exception might be allowed only if the organisation had acted in bad faith and misled the official."
