Consideraton 5
Extract:
"In support of its contention that there was no breach of his right to a hearing, the FAO cites earlier facts which it submits show that the complainant knew full well that his position was, to say the least, uncertain. Though there are no special rules on the subject and the procedure will depend on the circumstances of each case, the organization has a duty to show that the staff member cannot reasonably have failed to realise he was under threat of termination."

Consideration 2
Extract:
"The complainant maintains that he is entitled to have refunded to him any tax that was levied on his ilo salary and made over to the Indonesian government. [...] The ILO explained to him that if he could satisfy it that he himself had paid tax to the government it would reimburse the sum, and indeed that offer holds good. But the complainant has never offered any evidence of such payment, and his claim must therefore fail."

[...] The Tribunal will [determine] whether in this case there is evidence strong enough to create a suspicion of prejudice. Only if it finds there is not will it consider the allegation of such suspicion in similar cases."

Consideration 4
Extract:
The complainant challenges the non-renewal of her contract. She alleges breach of an oral promise of automatic renewal. But she offers no proof of the allegation. "Even supposing she were right and the head of personnel had said that fixed-term appointments were automatically renewed, there would not necessarily be a binding rule but just a common practice which would neither require the Director General to employ her nor confer on her any right to renewal."

Consideration 4
Extract:
The complainant contends that the decision not to confirm his appointment but to extend his probation is invalid because he received overdue notice thereof. The organisation points out that though the complainant was aware of the unfavourable report, he did not himself pursue the matter. "In law the organisation must show not just that the complainant failed to act but that it gave him timely notice of the decision or else that his evasiveness prevented it from doing so."

Consideration 1
Extract:
The complainant stated on his employment application that he was of Chilean nationality. Learning that he didn't have a Chilean passport, the Director General imposed a written reprimand for serious misconduct. According to the Tribunal, "the Director General's decision that the complainant had not proved his Chilean nationality was based on an error of law and a failure to take essential facts into consideration. Therefore it cannot stand."
Keywords:
disciplinary measure; disregard of essential fact; evidence; flaw; misrepresentation; nationality; serious misconduct; warning;
Consideration 1
Extract:
"The undisputed evidence is that the complainant was endowed at birth with Chilean nationality in accordance with the laws of his country. [...] Among the documents exhibited in the dossier are copies of the complainant's birth certificate, his Chilean identity card, a safe-conduct [...] and, finally, a Chilean passport issued to him on 28 April 1986. All this is overwhelming proof of the complainant's right to Chilean nationality."

Consideration 4
Extract:
The Tribunal applies the general rule on the burden of proof which requires the sender to establish the date on which a communication was received. as the organization has no evidence of the actual date of receipt of the decision, the Tribunal will accept what is said by the complainant. The complaint is therefore not time-barred.

Extract:
Before formally offering the candidate an appointment, the organization will ask for information from his employer and other suitable referees.

Consideration 7
Extract:
The complainant denies that she was ever in gross breach of the duty of discretion. She claims never to have been in touch with journalists neither herself nor through anyone else. "She can go no further than that since it is impossible to adduce evidence to rebut the charge. Her statement that she did not commit the misconduct she is charged with shifts the burden of proof to the organization. The Tribunal will not require absolute proof, which is almost impossible to provide on such a matter." A set of precise and concurring presumptions would be sufficient.

Consideration 3
Extract:
The complainant, whose contract was ended for reasons of health, refused disclosure of his medical file. "He [...] produces several certificates from doctors who have treated him. While not questioning their professional competence, the Tribunal will observe that the certificates have no value as evidence since the complainant refuses to let the who physician state his opinion. The complainant's position has destroyed the parity there should be between the parties, and the Tribunal can restore it only by discounting the medical certificate she has produced."
