The penalty of summary dismissal also caused the complainant obvious moral injury since it seriously damaged his honour and reputation of itself.

Consideration 26
Extract:
As regards material injury, the Tribunal observes that, from November 2016, the complainant was deprived of the remuneration he would ordinarily have received until the end of the contract in force at the time of his summary dismissal, which expired on 31 December 2017, and that he also lost a valuable opportunity to have his appointment subsequently renewed, given that his 26 years’ seniority with UNESCO meant that he could arguably have been expected to continue his career there until he retired.

Consideration 20
Extract:
In its pleas, UNWTO did not come to grips with any of the specifics of the complainant’s claims for material damages. The amounts are potentially significant. It is desirable the Tribunal has the benefit of as full an account from the complainant as possible of the amounts claimed and their justification, and submissions from the Organization responding, in detail, to each element of the claim for material damages and the quantification of the amount claimed. An order will be made to facilitate this process.

Consideration 21

The complainant is entitled to moral damages for the undoubted trauma and associated distress arising from and associated with her unlawful summary dismissal after 27 years of service at UNWTO and the consequential need for her to relocate to Mexico.

Consideration 15
Extract:
In one of the Tribunal’s earlier reported cases, Judgment 203 at consideration 2, the principle of proportionality was discussed in the context of the imposition of the disciplinary sanction of summary dismissal. The Tribunal noted that the imposition of the disciplinary sanction of discharge or summary dismissal could cause serious harm to the staff member and her or his family. The Tribunal observed that it was necessary for the penalty to be proportionate to the fault and that, in that case, the complainant’s misconduct could not be evaluated without taking into account the extenuating circumstances.

Considerations 16-17
Extract:
The failure of the complainant to discharge her duties in the manner specified in the charges had to be viewed in the context of the chief executive officer of the Organization, Mr R., knowing mostly how those duties were being performed, approving of how those duties were being performed and, at least in some respects, having instructed the complainant to perform them.
[…] The failure of the Secretary-General to pay any regard to Mr R.’s evidence was a serious flaw in the decision to summarily dismiss the complainant. That decision should be set aside.

Summary: The complainant impugns the decision to dismiss him on disciplinary grounds.
Consideration 12
Extract:
Given the preponderance of the evidence, including the complainant’s own admissions, the serious nature of his misconduct, as well as the fact that in March 2014 and prior to the commencement of the investigation in November 2014, the complainant was the subject of a written reprimand for improperly adding the spouse of a government official to a recruitment short-list, his contention that dismissal was a disproportionate measure is unfounded.

Summary: The complainant challenges the disciplinary measure of his summary dismissal in the wake of a sexual harassment complaint filed against him by one of his colleagues.
Judgment keywords
Keywords:
complaint dismissed; disciplinary measure; en banc review; plenary judgment; sexual harassment; summary dismissal;
Considerations 29-31
Extract:
The disciplinary authority within an international organisation has a discretion to choose the disciplinary measure imposed on an official for misconduct. However, its decision must always respect the principle of proportionality which applies in this area.
In the present case, the Tribunal considers that the acts of sexual harassment of which the complainant was accused are undeniably serious on account of their nature and their repetition. Moreover, it is clear from the evidence in the file that their gravity is exacerbated by two particular circumstances which must be emphasised here. First, it appears from the investigation report, inter alia, that many of the persons subjected by the complainant to the unwelcome behaviour in question were young women who did not hold a permanent appointment and who were therefore in a precarious situation which made it difficult for them to protest, let alone report it, especially as the complainant often had the power to influence the progress of their career. Secondly, it is plain from the file that, [...] after protests from several of his colleagues, the complainant had received various warnings about the inappropriate nature of his conduct. Thus, even assuming that the complainant had not instinctively realised it, he could not thereafter have been unaware that his behaviour towards the women who had to work alongside him was perceived by them to be improper, offensive and extremely unpleasant. This did not, however, prevent him from repeating his reprehensible conduct on many occasions, since further incidents occurred [...].
Having regard to these various considerations, and even though the complainant’s record of service with the Organization was otherwise excellent, the Tribunal finds that, in this case, the Director-General did not adopt a disproportionate disciplinary measure when she decided on the complainant’s summary dismissal for serious misconduct.
