  Consideration 12

  Extract:

  The Organisation adopted a new method of calculating replacement days granted to inspectors returning from a Chemical Weapons Destruction Facilities inspection because of the inconsistency between the practice with regard to replacement days and the terms of Administrative Directive AD/PER/12. The complainant contested that new method. Because the earlier practice had become in its view "well established", the Appeals Council recommended that the appeal be upheld, the previous practice reinstated and the replacement days that should have been granted in accordance with that practice reimbursed. The Tribunal considers that "[a]s the practice of granting a replacement day for each Saturday, Sunday or official OPCW holiday falling during an inspection period is inconsistent with the terms of AD/PER/12, that practice cannot be elevated to the status of law so as to entitle the complainant to additional replacement days, as was seemingly thought by the Appeals Council."

  Summary

  Extract:

  Article 59 of the EPO Service Regulations provides that the President shall lay down the list of applicable public holidays up to a maximum of ten days. On 8 November 1983 the President issued a list of 14 public holidays, the four additional working days lost to be made up by extending working hours for a time by half-an-hour. The Tribunal holds that while the President may ignore the ten-day limit he may not put the number of hours in the working week at more than 40 except when they are remunerated or made necessary by abnormal circumstances. In the instant case such circumstances do not exist.
