Consideration 6
Extract:
"As the complainant was not reinstated, her employment relationship with WMO ended on 3 November 2006 and with her separation from service, her right to participate in the UNJSPF ended (see Judgments 1338, 1797 and 1904). Further, as also stated in Judgment 2621 under 5, 'had it been its intent the Tribunal would have specifically ordered the payment of an amount equivalent to the pension fund contributions that would otherwise have been paid by the [organisation]'."

Considerations 12-13
Extract:
"The Organization pleads that it is under no duty to pay contributions for [the complainant] to the Pension Fund or to the staff health insurance plan and would have had such duty only if he had been reinstated [...]. The Tribunal ruled on a similar issue in Judgment 1338 [...], in which it held that its award [...] of damages equivalent to 'the amount of the salary, allowances and other entitlements [the complainant] would have received' had not required reinstatement in the Pension Fund or health insurance."

Consideration 12
Extract:
The International Civil Service Commission was not "bound to recommend that [the organization] fall in line with the practice of outside employers [...] In respect of compulsory insurance premiums and the refund of expenses incurred [the organization's] scheme of staff health insurance and the [national] social security system [...] are not closely comparable; indeed they are quite different. [...] The Commission abided by the applicable methodology - for all its flaws on that count - and [the organization] made no mistake of fact or of law."

Consideration 34
Extract:
Whereas the right to a pension "is no doubt inviolable, a pension contribution is by its very nature subject to variation [...]. Far from infringing any acquired right a rise in contribution that is warranted for sound actuarial reasons [...] actually affords the best safeguard against the threat that lack of foresight may pose to the future value of pension benefits."
Keywords:
acquired right; actuarial valuation; contributions; increase; pension;
Consideration 36
Extract:
The complainant objects to the actuarial method which the organisation used in a study of the pension fund's foreseeable costs. "Like any public authority, the EPO enjoys a presumption in its favour - especially when it is taking technical measures and it has done thorough preparatory work - that its choice of actuarial method is the most suitable and the fairest. [...] It is of course open to a staff member under a system of administrative law to challenge the organisation's choice, but he must be able to adduce evidence to show why the chosen method, when compared with others, may suffer from technical flaws that should have disqualified it."

Consideration 19
Extract:
The complainants object to the way of reckoning their premiums "the change the complainants object to is part of wider reforms the WHO made to put the scheme on a sounder financial footing over the long term. The Organization is right to pursue that aim by all suitable means at its disposal, and they include measures to ensure that, in keeping with the notion of mutual aid, everyone bears a fair share of costs."

Consideration 24
Extract:
The complainants object to the way of reckoning their premiums under the organization's health insurance scheme in accordance with an amendment to its rules. They allege breach of acquired rights. "The organization has not discriminated against them: far from it. Its purpose was to remove an unfair advantage the rules used to confer on them. Such corrective action may not be treated as breach of acquired rights even if the advantage was enjoyed for a long time."

Consideration 6
Extract:
"Where the Rule [viz. Article 25 of the 1956 Staff Rules] is silent the competent authority - here the Administrative Committee - does have discretion to set the amount of the contribution to be paid from the date of retirement. But its decision will not be immune to review by the Tribunal, which will interfere if it finds some mistake of fact or of law [etc.]". The decision to do away with the material benefit is in breach of Article 25 and cannot stand.

Summary
Extract:
In Judgment 996 the Tribunal set aside the decision to dismiss the complainant and ordered his reinstatement "with full arrears of salary and allowances". In execution of that judgment the ESO reinstated him as a member of its health insurance scheme as from the date of dismissal and deducted the corresponding premiums from his pay. The complainant's objections to the deductions are mistaken. The intention of Judgment 996 was, as far as possible, to put the complainant in the same position as if he had not been dismissed. The Tribunal is satisfied that in respect of health insurance the organisation has complied with the letter and the spirit of the judgment.

Summary
Extract:
Article 38(3) of the EPO Service Regulations says that the General Advisory Committee, a joint body comprising staff and management representatives, shall be responsible for giving a "reasoned opinion" - except in cases of obvious urgency - on any proposal which concerns the whole or part of the staff. The aim of the provision is to encourage proper consultation between the two sides and that means giving the Committee enough information. At issue is the decision to raise from 1 January 1988 the staff's contributions to the organisation's collective insurance against the risks of death and invalidity. But the Committee did not have the information on which to base "a reasoned opinion" until its meeting of 24 and 25 November. The Tribunal will therefore quash the EPO's decision to increase his contributions for the period from 1 January to 25 November 1988.

Consideration 7
Extract:
The complainant and her husband are employees of the EPO. In view of the fact that between them they pay a double premium, she is seeking the refund at 100 per cent of their medical expenses, and not 80 per cent as stipulated in the insurance policy. In keeping with the organisation's view, the Tribunal holds that under the material rules of the organisation, "each staff member pays contributions that depend on the amount of salary, yet is entitled to the same benefits, whatever the degree of individual risk or family situation may be. Status as an official will always prevail over status as the member of an official's family, and the right to refund derives solely from the former, not from any marital connection there may be with another official."

Consideration 10
Extract:
"The relief sought by the complainants is an order or declaration that the organisation is liable to contribute to the [social security] scheme in respect of the [gratifications] paid to the complainants. It is unusual for the Tribunal to give relief in this form, especially where third parties such as the [national] authorities are involved. The normal method of relief would be an order against the organisation that it should compensate the complainants for the loss they have sustained."

The Staff Rules give effect to the principle of freedom of association by providing inter alia "that staff associations shall have the right to request their membership for [...] financial contributions; and that the [organization] may give financial assistance to any such association in the furtherance of activities beneficial to the staff provided that the membership of the association also contributes substantially to such activity."

Consideration 9
Extract:
"When [the complainants] joined the staff they naturally took a keen interest in pension matters such as the amount of their contributions and of the pension itself, and perhaps they did acquire a right from the rules on such matters. But the rate of contribution by the [organisation] was a matter of lesser importance to them: its effect on their position was not direct enough for any acquired right to arise."

Consideration 9
Extract:
The complainant claims reimbursement of the tax payable on a lump-sum payment from the pension fund. He relies on the principle of equality of treatment with two officials who had opted for a repayment of their own contributions and to whom the organisation reimbursed taxation payable in respect of those contributions. "The Tribunal considers that there is a categorical distinction between persons who elect to take a repayment of contributions and those who elect to take a lump-sum payment in part commutation of a pension; and that the principle of equality does not require the two categories to be treated in the same way."
