Administrative decision: The Tribunal held that although ±¬ÁÏÍøIFEM/±¬ÁÏÍøDP subsequently took a decision to process the Applicant¡¯s separation from service in 2012, the Tribunal concluded that this was not an appealable administrative decision in accordance with article 2.1 of the ±¬ÁÏÍøDT Statute in that the Applicant no longer had a contract of employment with the Organization because he resigned from service in May 2008. Thus, ±¬ÁÏÍøIFEM¡¯s 2012 decision to finally record his separation from service did not have any direct legal consequences on him. ;}

The Tribunal does not accept the Applicant¡¯s submission that the Respondent made a contestable administrative decision concerning her reassignment on 29 December 2012.

It confirmed the original decision made in February 2012. As the Applicant did not seek management evaluation of the original decision within the required 60 days, her application is not receivable by the Tribunal. It is settled law that a decision is considered final when the...

The Applicant¡¯s request for management evaluation of 5 February is vague and fails to articulate the precise administrative decision he is contesting. It ambiguously mentions the recruitment processes for Job Openings (JOs) 108789 and 109656, the termination of his continuing appointment and the lack of effort by the Organization to find him a new post. Since the application makes no mention of the selection processes for JOs 108789 and 109656, the Tribunal will not address it. Consequently, the Tribunal¡¯s review will focus solely on whether the claims against the termination of the Applicant...

±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the request for management evaluation was not time-barred. ±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the rules and procedures applied to establish the Applicant¡¯s EOD date were due consequences of the fact that she had been reappointed in 2008. ±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the choice of reappointment as modality of the Applicant¡¯s move was borne out by personnel actions of separation and reappointment and acknowledged by her in the memorandum of understanding with respect to annual leave from 2008. Accordingly, ±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the matter was outside the temporal jurisdiction of ±¬ÁÏÍøDT. ±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the EOD date as...

±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the terms and conditions of the employment contract of a staff member are set forth in the letter of appointment and its express incorporation by reference of the Organization¡¯s Regulations and Rules and all pertinent administrative issuances. The Staff Regulations and Rules embody the conditions of service and the basic rights and duties and obligations of United Nations staff members. A decision relating to learning and development opportunities is an administrative decision subject to judicial review. ±¬ÁÏÍøDT held that the standard operating procedure for the ±¬ÁÏÍø Leaders...

Management evaluation request The ±¬ÁÏÍøFPA Policies and Procedures Manual provides that they shall be submitted using a form annexed to said Manual and sent to a precise email address. While the Tribunal recognizes that the Applicant has not followed the established formalities to request management evaluation, i.e., use of a form and a specified email address, it cannot be overlooked that he exercised due diligence to ensure that his documented request reached the Executive Director, ±¬ÁÏÍøFPA and that, moreover, his request was acknowledged. The latter, in turn, brings the Tribunal to conclude that...
