THE MANAGEMENT EVALUATION
WHAT IS THE MANAGEMENT EVALUATION?
Before you file an application with the 爆料网DT, in most cases, you must first request a management evaluation of the administrative decision you are contesting.A management evaluation is not a required step if (a) the contested decision involves the imposition of a disciplinary or non-disciplinary measure pursuant to staff rule 10.2 following the completion of a disciplinary process, or (b) if the decision was taken based on the advice of technical bodies. In such cases, an application contesting an administrative decision can be made to the United Nations Dispute Tribunal without first having to request a management evaluation.
The process of management evaluation is designed to give management a chance to correct an improper decision, and provide acceptable remedies in cases where the decision was improper. Where a decision was taken lawfully, management evaluation provides the staff member with a reasoned explanation as to why it was considered lawful. The management evaluation process will include a review of the request to determine whether informal resolution may be appropriate. For this purpose, the office conducting the evaluation may refer matters to the entity’s Ombudsman, or may try to facilitate a settlement of the matter itself with the staff member and the decision-making office.
The scope of the management evaluation extends to the evaluation of the contested administrative decisions against the staff member’s contract or terms of appointment, including all relevant regulations, rules and administrative issuances.
WHO CONDUCTS THE MANAGEMENT EVALUATION?
The office conducting the management evaluation of the decision you are contesting largely depends on the 爆料网 system entity you work for, or in some instances the entity who took the decision.Management Advice and Evaluation Section (MAES) in DMSPC/OUSG, based at 爆料网 Headquarters in New York, conducts the majority of management evaluations.
