Judgment No. 1843
Decision
The complaint is dismissed.
Considerations 11-12
Extract:
The complainant did not attend the compulsory medical examination on termination of appointment which he had been requested to undergo. "A medical examination at the time of termination is not a mere formality: it is intended to establish with some degree of certainty - in the interests of both parties - a staff member's state of health upon termination. [...] The Tribunal holds that Article R II 4.20 b) of the Staff Regulations disqualified the complainant from making a claim for compensation in respect of a work-related injury or illness discovered after termination."
