  • Judgment 3295


    116th Session, 2014
    Pan American Health Organization

    Summary: The complaint concerning a disciplinary measure was dismissed by the Tribunal on the grounds that he had not demonstrated the existence of an error warranting the cancellation of the sanction.

    Consideration 11

    Extract:

    "The complainant also takes the position that PAHO failed to give him a warning or the opportunity to correct the situation prior to bringing disciplinary action. In Judgment 1661, under 3, the Tribunal framed an organisation’s obligations in the following terms: “Before an organisation imposes a disciplinary penalty such as dismissal it must warn the staff member and give him the opportunity not only of stating his own case but also of refuting the organisation’s: in other words, there must be due process. So he must be told of the charges and of the evidence against him. If the proceedings are to be properly adversarial, he must be free to give his own version of the facts, refute that evidence, adduce his own, take part in the discussion of it, and at least once crossquestion the expert and other witnesses. See, for example, Judgments 512 […] under 5; 907 […] under 4; 999 […] under 5; 1082 […] under 18; 1133 […] under 7; 1212 […] under 3; 1228 […] under 4; 1251 […] under 8; 1384 […] under 5, 10 and 15; 1395 […] under 6; 1484 […] under 7 and 8.”"

    116th Session, 2014
    Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR
    Summary: The complainant successfully challenged the decision to offer him a one-year extension of his fixed-term contract rather than the two-year extensions he had previously received.

    Considerations 11 and 12

    Extract:

    "These facts were significant as they highlight the need for reasons in this case because these circumstances impacted the complainant’s ability to assess whether he should have accepted the offer of the one-year extension of his contract and whether he should challenge the decision.
    It is also significant that the complainant was reminded of the deadline [...], when he had not yet received the explanation. Additionally, it was in the letter [...], which included the explanation, that the Executive Secretary informed the complainant that his contract would expire [...] because he had failed to accept the offer of extension. The Tribunal therefore finds that the decision to offer the one-year extension to the complainant was flawed by the failure of the Administration to provide a timely explanation for that decision."

    113th Session, 2012
    World Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations 35 to 37

    Extract:

    The Tribunal must emphasise that the manner in which WHO handled this case amounted to serious wrongdoing. The abrupt termination of the complainant’s appointment after the measures adopted by the Swiss authorities was prompted by an anomalous situation which, although it was primarily due to the complainant’s unlawful presence in Switzerland dating back several years, was also the result of grave malfunctioning within the Organization.
    Indeed, when recruiting its officials an international organisation must ensure that their status complies with the laws of the host State governing the residence of aliens, failing which it may be held to have abused the privileges and immunities conferred upon it and upon its staff members.
    In the instant case WHO acted with great negligence from this point of view since, as is plain from the file, it failed to carry out any checks to ascertain the complainant’s status in this respect when he was recruited and when his appointment was extended on the first two occasions. This negligence was aggravated when the complainant then submitted an application for a legitimation card, because the Organization mechanically forwarded this application to the Permanent Mission of Switzerland, although the complainant merely produced the above-mentioned power of attorney with the letterhead of the UNIA trade union as proof that he was lawfully present in Switzerland. Clearly this document could not be deemed in any way to be the equivalent of a residence permit issued by the Swiss authorities, or even as a guarantee that the complainant’s status would be regularised in the near future.

    Keywords:

    host state; negligence; termination of employment;

    Consideration 45

    Extract:

    [I]n the very special circumstances of this case, WHO must be held responsible for the fact that – even if, in cancelling his journey to Côte d’Ivoire, the complainant’s reaction to the situation at that time was inappropriate – he was objectively deprived by the unlawful termination of his appointment of a possibility of regularising his stay in Switzerland and thereafter possibly continuing in service in the Organization. The injury thus suffered calls for redress the terms of which will be determined by the Tribunal.

  • Judgment 3139


    113th Session, 2012
    International Telecommunication Union
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations 4 and 5

    Extract:

    The complainant has no grounds to regard the refusal to renew her contract as a disguised disciplinary measure imposed in retaliation for the internal appeals against her suspension [...].
    Moreover, the decision of 31 March 2010 cannot be regarded as a dismissal decision; it was simply a decision not to renew a contract which was due to expire because, at that date, no request for review having been submitted within the prescribed time limit, the decision of 17 November 2009 extending the complainant’s appointment for five months had become final (see Judgment 3140, also delivered this day).
    Although the decision of 31 March 2010 was therefore neither a disciplinary measure nor a dismissal, the complainant’s right to be heard had to be respected nonetheless.

    [I]t was for the Organization to establish misconduct beyond reasonable doubt and, this being a dismissal case, the complainant was entitled to the benefit of the doubt (see Judgment 2786, consideration 9). However, the burden of proof was effectively reversed when he was dismissed.

    Consideration 9

    Extract:

    In the proceedings before the Advisory Board and in these proceedings, the organization has raised matters in purported justification of the complainant’s dismissal that go beyond the grounds specified in the notice of dismissal.
    "This is not permissible. To allow that course would seriously infringe on a staff member’s right to be heard before a disciplinary measure is imposed."
