Considerations
Extract:
A clause in the complainant's contract provides for compensation in the event of "illness". It is unclear whether the term applies to all cases of illness or only to cases of illness which were due to performance of duties. Under the second interpretation, the person concerned would be entitled to full compensation for the prejudice suffered and its direct consequences, for example disability. "Without settling that question, and assuming in the complainant's favour that the second interpretation is correct", the Tribunal notes that the illness was not related to the performance of his duties.

Considerations
Extract:
The purpose of PAHO Staff Rule 220.2 on promotions is to increment salaries. "Thus the fixing of the step must be construed as only the means by which the true object of the rule is to be secured. The means are the servant of the end not its master; the failure of the means prescribed cannot be allowed to defeat the object; the object must be achieved in some other appropriate way."

Consideration 2
Extract:
"Maintenance, like dependence, can be defined in different ways. While it can be argued that a contribution to maintenance is a form of maintenance, it can also be claimed that only complete maintenance can truly be called maintenance." The meaning of the applicable texts has not been clearly stated in the new Staff Regulations.

Consideration 3
Extract:
The date on which the appeal is despatched is the important one. "[I]n laying down that staff members must submit their appeal in writing to the [competent body] within 15 or 30 days, [the applicable provision] implies that the important one is that on which the appeal is despatched."

Consideration 2(B)
Extract:
It is stated in their contracts that officials are initially appointed to a given post, subject to possible transfer subsequently. "The wording [initially, subsequently] of this provision does not mean that in every case an official must perform the duties of the original post for a certain period of time before being required to accept re-assignment. If the first assignment appears straight away to be unsuitable, there is nothing to prevent his immediate re-assignment. Any other solution might be as damaging to the official as to the organisation."

Consideration 1
Extract:
The relationship between the complainant and the organization is contractual. The Tribunal is competent only because the dispute has been submitted to it for arbitration. "In order to carry out the Commission thus entrusted to it, the Tribunal must therefore base its decision on the clauses of the contract which constituted [the complainant's] sole tie with [the organization], adopt generally accepted rules of interpretation on the subject of contracts and, in particular, inquire into the mutual intentions of the parties at the time that the said contract was concluded."

Extract:
A circular provides for renewal if, in particular, the services of the person concerned are needed. "This expression cannot mean that the person concerned must be irreplaceable, in that no successor can be found; [...] it means only that the requirements of the service [...] must be permanent and that the said person must give full satisfaction therein and otherwise in all manner in the performance of his duties".
