Judgment 4814
137th Session, 2024
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
Extracts: EN,
FR
Full Judgment Text: EN,
FR
Summary: The complainant, who was the subject of an investigation into allegations of harassment and abuse of authority, alleges that she received no reply, within the sixty-day time limit, to the claim submitted to the Director-General regarding “multiple conflicts of interest” of the Internal Oversight Service.
Consideration 6
Extract:
Firstly, the Tribunal considers that the complainant’s reliance on Article VII, paragraph 3, of its Statute is misplaced. It is clear from her submissions that the request made by her counsels in their letter of 1 December 2022 addressed to the Director-General, which had been submitted for the first time on 18 November 2022, had already been considered and explicitly rejected by the DDG on 25 and 29 November 2022. The fact that this request was subsequently escalated to the Director-General does not alter the conclusion that the Administration had already taken a decision on it, thus excluding the application of Article VII, paragraph 3, of the Tribunal’s Statute.

Judgment 4812

World Health Organization

Full Judgment Text: EN,

Summary: The complainant requests moral and material damages for the harm she allegedly suffered as a result of her supervisor’s behaviour and the unduly extended length of time of the investigation.
Considerations 7-8
Extract:
Article VII, paragraph 3, of the Tribunal’s Statute relevantly provides that “[w]here the Administration fails to take a decision upon any claim of an official within sixty days from the notification of the claim to it, the person concerned may have recourse to the Tribunal and her or his complaint shall be receivable in the same manner as a complaint against a final decision”.
In the present case, […] the complainant’s claim to be granted redress for the actions of her supervisor and the time taken to complete the investigation was rejected by a decision of 9 November 2021, which then became the subject of her internal appeal. Thus, although there may have been some delay on the part of the Director-General in taking the final decision on that appeal, she is obviously not in the situation contemplated by Article VII, paragraph 3, of the Tribunal’s Statute.

Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations

Summary: The complainant challenges the decision to “terminate [her] contract after [her] resignation”.
Consideration 4
Extract:
While Article VII, paragraph 3, of the Tribunal’s Statute, allows for direct recourse to the Tribunal “[w]here the Administration fails to take a decision upon any claim of an official within sixty days from the notification of the claim to it”, this paragraph must be read in conjunction with paragraph 1 of Article VII. According to Article VII, paragraph 1, of the Statute of the Tribunal, “[a] complaint shall not be receivable unless the decision impugned is a final decision and the person concerned has exhausted such other means of redress as are open to her or him under the applicable Staff Regulations”. It follows that the Tribunal cannot hear a complaint against an implicit decision to reject a claim unless the complainant has exhausted all available internal remedies (see Judgments 4517, consideration 4, and 2631, consideration 3).

Judgment 4769

European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation
Extracts: EN,

Full Judgment Text: EN,
FR
Summary: The complainant impugns what he refers to as decisions concerning Eurocontrol Agency’s reorganisation, and his transfer following that reorganisation.
Consideration 3
Extract:
[T]he complainant raised the point that, after he had filed his complaint with the Tribunal, [...] the Joint Committee for Disputes eventually issued its opinion on his internal complaint. This led to a decision explicitly rejecting that internal complaint, taken on 10 December 2021 [...].
[...] Since the parties had the opportunity to comment fully in their submissions on the decision expressly rejecting the complainant’s internal complaint, the Tribunal considers it appropriate to treat the complaint as if it were directed against that decision (for similar cases, see, in particular, Judgments 4660, consideration 6, 4065, consideration 3, and 2786, consideration 3).

Summary: The complainant challenges the decision of the Director-General dismissing as irreceivable his internal appeal against an “implied decision” by the Organization not to provide him with any Terms of Reference or work from 10 September 2016 until 31 December 2018, when he separated from service upon reaching the mandatory retirement age.

Consideration 8
Extract:
In the usual case, the following reflects the case law concerning an implied decision. In Judgment 3089, consideration 7, the Tribunal said:
“An implied decision occurs only when a person who has submitted a claim is entitled to treat delay, inactivity, or some other failure, as constituting a decision to reject his or her claim and elects to do so.”
The concept of a claim involves the assertion of an unsatisfied right to a benefit or entitlement under the terms of appointment or the staff rules and regulations and its rejection entails the refusal to pay the benefit or grant the entitlement either in whole or in part. As this passage says, the refusal may arise by implication based on delay, inactivity or other failure. The Tribunal has accepted that a member of staff has a right to be provided with work (see Judgments 3937, 2360 and 630). In Judgment 3377, consideration 13, this was found to be harassment.

European Patent Organisation
Extracts: EN,

Full Judgment Text: EN,

Summary: The complainant challenges the findings of the Medical Committee according to which his invalidity is not of occupational origin.
Consideration 3
Extract:
Even if the Tribunal were to accept to regard the claims in question as being directed against the [...] decision of 12 July 2007, they would still be irreceivable, since they would be time-barred. Indeed, it has been established that the complainant did not impugn the said decision before the Tribunal within the period of ninety days provided for in Article VII, paragraph 2, of the Tribunal’s Statute. The decision therefore became final, and the complainant could no longer seek to challenge it in his request of 30 April 2015, almost eight years later. As a result, on this issue, the implied decision of the President of the Office to reject that request must be considered as purely confirmatory of the earlier decision of 12 July 2007. As such, it could not set off a new time limit for an appeal by the complainant (see, for example, Judgments 698, consideration 7, 1304, consideration 5, 2449, consideration 9, or 3002, consideration 12).
