Considerations

Extract:

According to the general principles of the international civil service, "a supervisor may suspend from duty, forthwith and without formality, a staff member who is manifestly guilty of misconduct serious enough to make it clear that it is incompatible with the organisation's interests to keep him on the staff. Suspension is a provisional measure and reserves the staff member's rights; it should be followed by an inquiry which affords him full safeguards and as a rule requires notably action by the head of the organisation."
