  Consideration 4

  Extract:

  "It is not for the Tribunal to interpret the text of the guideline. The [Staff] Regulation leaves it to the discretion of the President to determine the number of years [of professional experience] so long as he has regard to the guideline. [...] He is entitled to have regard to the fact that the interpretation [put on it], whether right or wrong, has been applied consistently since the first staff were recruited and it cannot now be changed without causing injustice."

  51st Session, 1983
  European Patent Organisation
  Extracts: EN, FR
  Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

  Considerations

  Extract:

  When the organisation [EPO] was created, it had to recruit a large staff; "when fixing the initial grade, [it had] to take into account experience gained, first in patent offices and, second, in industry generally. [...] The organisation distinguishes between the first and second categories. [...] In the opinion of the Tribunal the distinction is not unreal and the complainant has not shown any breach of [the principle of equality of treatment]."

  49th Session, 1982
  Pan American Health Organization

  Considerations

  Extract:

  The complainant, like two other candidates [Judgments Nos. 519 and 520] was rejected for a particular vacancy for lack of a university degree. "Had it not been for this lack, he would have had a strong claim to be considered, since he had for five years been second in command of the unit to which the post belonged and during an earlier vacancy he had for over a year been in charge of the unit."

• Judgment 519

  
  49th Session, 1982
  Pan American Health Organization
  Extracts: EN, FR
  Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

  Considerations

  Extract:

  The complainant's application for an appointment was eliminated because he did not meet the minimum qualification [a university degree]. "He asserts, which may be right, that the qualifications are higher than those needed for the job", but does not support the allegation. He makes other allegations of procedural irregularities and general prejudice against him, "allegations which it is unnecessary to consider since, so long as the educational qualification stands, the rejection of the complainant was inevitable."

• Judgment 238

  
  33rd Session, 1974
  International Labour Organization
  Extracts: EN, FR
  Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

  Considerations

  Extract:

  "The process of selection of civil servants should by its very nature be based not just on the results of an examination but on any other useful criteria. Account should be taken, not only of the candidates' possession of the expressly stipulated qualifications, but of their degrees and of their professional experience, which in itself constitutes a criterion for selection and one of particular relevance in recruiting civil servants."

  Considerations

  Extract:

  "An internal competition, of which the main purpose is to promote existing staff members, normally entails taking into consideration all the information available to the organisation concerning them, and in particular information which allows of appraising the professional experience of the candidates."

• Judgment 217

  
  31st Session, 1973
  International Patent Institute
  Extracts: EN, FR
  Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

  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."

• Judgment 202

  
  30th Session, 1973
  International Patent Institute
  Extracts: EN, FR
  Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

  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.
