Judgment No. 321
Decision
THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.
Considerations
Extract:
The complainant's contract, a fixed-term appointment, expired. "The very fact that the Director-General gave him several short extensions of appointment shows that the organization did indeed try to keep him on the staff by granting him an appointment of longer duration. Although he applied unsuccessfully for many vacancies, it was for the Director-General alone, since he is responsible for the efficient running of the organization, to decide whether to offer the complainant any of those vacancies. Besides, because of his grade [D.1] few posts could be offered to him."
