Consideration 11

Extract:

The Tribunal finds that as sick leave must be approved by the Director General, the nature of the sick leave must also be approved. Considering that sick leave for service-incurred illness is an exception to the general sick leave entitlements, it follows that if further verifications are requested, WIPO is bound to treat the staff member’s illness under the usual terms for sick leave until the determination by [the United Nations Office at Geneva Medical Services Section] that the illness is service-incurred (see Judgment 3591, consideration 11). The Tribunal notes that this practice is not prejudicial to staff members as any eventual determination that an illness or injury is service-incurred will naturally be remedied retroactively to the start date of the determined period of service-incurred illness or injury.
