Consideration 1
Extract:
In the opinion of the Tribunal it is the words "terms of appointment" which are crucial in Article II, paragraph 5, of the Statute of the Tribunal. "The appointment is not imposed upon the official on such terms as the organization alone thinks fit; it is the result of a contract which contains the terms agreed between the organization and the person to be appointed."

Extract:
"The facts as stated are consistent with the possibility that the complainants knew what they were doing and signed the [recruitment] form because they believed, probably correctly, that unless they did so they would not get the appointments they wanted. If this is so, it might be reprehensible conduct by the organization but it would not amount to concealment or to bad faith towards the complainants."

Consideration 4(D)
Extract:
"Paragraph 5 [of Article II] in the English text refers to non-observance of 'the terms of appointment', but in this context the word 'appointment' is not in the opinion of the Tribunal to be restricted to the narrow sense of a formal appointment. It must be treated as embracing a contract to make an appointment and in this sense it is consistent with the French text, 'contrat d'engagement'."

Consideration 1
Extract:
"A circular of this character does not, as do the Staff Regulations, form part of a staff member's terms of appointment and so as a general rule a departure from its provisions does not of itself give him any right to relief [...] If a circular prescribes a certain procedure to be followed, the Tribunal will consider, not necessarily whether the procedure has been exactly followed, but whether any departure from it has prejudiced the staff member in a way that affects his rights."

On the contrary, although it is of course required to take account of the legitimate interests of staff members on recruitment, in doing so it cannot overlook its own interests."

Considerations 2-3
Extract:
The complainant, of Tunisian nationality, held fixed-term contracts, followed by a contract of indeterminate duration. Under the terms of these contracts he was "locally recruited". In application of the relevant provisions, "he was deemed to be a locally recruited official and his home was therefore his duty station, namely Geneva, as the Director-General held in the impugned decision."

Consideration 4
Extract:
"[T]he complainant did not object to the terms of [his appointments, which gave him local status,] at any time before or during their period of validity. It was only after the appointments had expired that he maintained that Geneva could not lawfully be stated to be his home. It was therefore no longer open to him to contest the terms of appointment, which had become final."

Consideration 1
Extract:
"At the time of his recruitment and on the confirmation of his appointment [...] the complainant was subject to the former Staff Rules and was therefore in a different position from staff members recruited under the new Staff Regulations [...] Consequently, the complainant did not suffer unequal treatment in relation to staff members appointed later because he was not in the same position as they were."
Keywords:

Consideration 1
Extract:
According to the texts bonuses which take account of previous experience form part of the terms of appointment. The complainant was confirmed before the new provisions came into effect. He cannot therefore claim benefit under these new regulations. "He could only do so if that article was retroactive to the date at which the complainant was recruited, which is not the case."

Consideration 1
Extract:
"There is not, nor is there alleged to be, any term of the complainant's appointment nor any provision in any Staff Regulation which requires the organization either to grant or to extend secondments to another international organization. Accordingly, the Tribunal is not competent to examine this complaint or to consider whether or not the reason given by the organization for its refusal was well-founded."

Summary
Extract:
The complainant contends that the payment of his salary in United States dollars and not in Swiss francs was in violation of his terms of appointment. He has no such acquired right. Besides, he had accepted payment in United States dollars for twelve years without protest. The decisions taken by the authorities concerning these payments are not open to discussion in view of a settlement. The Secretary-General was in no way required to reverse those decisions following the devaluation of the dollar and the Tribunal will not interfere with them.

Consideration 6
Extract:
"At the time of his appointment the complainant was subject to the old grading standards. His position was therefore different from that of staff members recruited in accordance with the new standards. Thus, since he was not in the same position as those staff members, the complainant did not suffer any discrimination in relation to them."

Considerations
Extract:
Seniority bonuses are part of the terms of recruitment. Only by retroactive application of the new Staff Rules could the complainant be granted an additional bonus. But the new rules are not retroactive and the complainant's reliance on them is ill-founded.

Considerations
Extract:
The complainant maintains that she accepted the post only on the promise that it would shortly be graded G.6 and that the job description was marked "proposed G.6". But the complainant, who relies on mere promises or proposals, cannot claim any right to have her post regraded G.6. in the course of the general review of the grading of posts to align the organisation's classifications with those of the United Nations, the Secretary-General was "not bound by any prior legal obligation towards the complainant."

Consideration 3
Extract:
In support of her argument that she is not bound by the material provision, the complainant contends that the provision does not apply to her because it was not brought to her knowledge and accepted by her at the time of her appointment. The plea fails. "The contract was expressly made subject to the Staff Rules and Regulations and it is not necessary that any particular rule should be brought to the notice of the employee or specifically accepted by her."

"[The] complainant's transfer, which involved no reduction in her salary, did not affect the nature of her appointment.

It follows that the [transfer] decision is not tainted by illegality."

Consideration 2
Extract:
The aim of the complaint is to contest, not that the regulations in force at the time of the death were correctly applied, but the validity of the bases on which the amount of the widow's pension was calculated resulting from the application of the new pension arrangement. In the opinion of the complainant, the new arrangement adversely affected the balance of contracted obligations of her husband and infringed the essential terms in consideration of which he had accepted appointment. The validity of the applicable statutory provisions is thus questioned as regards terms of appointment and the legality of the decision which made these provisions applicable in his particular case.

Consideration 4
Extract:
Far from citing any non-compliance with the texts in force on the date when her pension became payable, "the complainant asserts that the impugned decision is illegal in that it makes her subject to a system which alters the balance of contractual obligations with respect to her and infringes the conditions which induced her to accept service with [the organisation]". She therefore challenges the validity of the applicable regulations with respect to the conditions of her appointment and the legality of the decision by virtue of which these decisions were made applicable to her individually.
