  Consideration 2

  Extract:

  "The complainants apply for joinder. The Organization does not object though it rightly points out that the facts differ somewhat from case to case. Since the complaints raise the same issues of law they are joined."

  Consideration 14

  Extract:

  ITU Staff Regulation 3.8 (a) lays down two conditions regarding the payment of a special post allowance: "one is that there must be a post at a higher grade than the claimant's; the other that the claimant must be performing the duties of the post. The Union adds a third condition, that the post description must be recent. But it is wrong: there is neither a written rule nor any particular basic principle that lays down that requirement."

  Consideration 6

  Extract:

  The complainant relies on an alleged promise of promotion which took the form of an announcement in the EPO gazette. "The issue is one of good faith. There is indeed no question of imputing to the EPO any promise to grant to a seconded employee who proved his mettle as liaison officer an automatic promotion in grade or appointment to some more covetable post. Such promise would have been untoward and presumably incompatible with any properly strict observance of the Service Regulations."

  Consideration 7(a)

  Extract:

  The Flemming principle "demands that, so far as can be, pay in the international civil service should stay on a par with the best pay on the local market. Since for the time being there is neither a continuing survey nor a new one interim adjustment answers the purpose of Flemming. Yet [...] it is not at odds with that purpose to make the adjustment for the last period retroactive in the light of the findings of the general survey. During that period, which is short, the idea of interim adjustment is not discarded but the grant of it simply made subject to other conditions."

  Consideration 16

  Extract:

  An international organisation is liable for the injury a staff member may cause in the performance of duty, and that includes injury to other members of staff. [...] An organisation will of course not be liable for private misconduct of an employee that has no link with the performance of duty. But misconduct in the context of employment is another matter. When someone whom the organisation has appointed to act as supervisor or director commits an abuse of authority, the subordinate who suffers injury thereby is entitled to damages.

  Consideration 16

  Extract:

  An organisation will of course not be liable for private misconduct of an employee that has no link with the
  performance of duty. But misconduct in the context of employment is another matter. When someone whom the
  organisation has appointed to act as supervisor or director commits an abuse of authority, the subordinate who
  suffers injury thereby is entitled to damages. Such is the complainants' case. Without having to go through all the
  evidence before it [...] the Tribunal holds that each of the complainants suffered treatment that was an affront to her personal and professional dignity. It was inadmissible for one of its officers, in this case a man, to make a habit of addressing women subordinates in language that was blatantly coarse and lascivious. What is more it offended against [an ILO circular], which seeks to ensure - to use its own words - a safe and healthful working environment free from sexual harassment and intimidation'. The whole drift of the evidence before the tribunal is that someone on whom the ILO had conferred much authority saw rough language and rough behaviour as not incompatible with his exercise of it. They were therefore part and parcel of the performance of his duties, and on that account the Organization is liable.

  Consideration 3

  Extract:

  "According to precedent complaints are to be joined only if they raise the same issues of fact and of law. The [complainant's] ninth and tenth complaints do rest on the same facts [...] and impugn the same decision, albeit each challenges a different part of it. But the issues of law are different [...] so the conditions for joinder are not met."

  Considerations 4-5

  Extract:

  There is a general principle of law that for a claim to damages to succeed "the claimant must provide evidence of (i) an unlawful act, (ii) actual injury and (iii) a causal link between act and injury. [...] Injury is not to be presumed: mere mention of 'worries', 'psychological stress' and 'deprivation of rights' will not do."

  Consideration 4

  Extract:

  Advancement under Staff Regulation 3.4 "consists in rising by steps: any staff member qualifies for it who meets the conditions of seniority and 'satisfactory service'. Personal promotion means rising in grade without any change in duties and is a benefit that the Director General may bestow at discretion. He does so only in 'exceptional circumstances' to reward someone for services of a quality higher than that ordinarily expected of the holder of the post."

  Consideration 8

  Extract:

  "The defendant argues that since [the selected candidate] was an internal candidate it was right anyway to give her priority in the process of selection. The plea fails. As the Tribunal held, for example, in Judgment 519 [...], priority is not due to an internal applicant who does not have the minimum qualifications."

  Consideration 7

  Extract:

  "It is plain from the whole process of selection that though the Committee did endorse the panel's report it had neither looked at the individual applications nor seen any of the candidates but had left all that to the panel. Though it is not unthinkable for a selection committee to set up a panel of people whom it believes to be better fitted to assess the technical qualifications of candidates, especially external ones, it may not delegate altogether its authority under the Staff Regulations. It must exercise its own authority and not delegate unless the rules say it may."

  Consideration 9

  Extract:

  The intervener offers no factual evidence to show that her duties entitled her to the allowance. She merely says that she is in the same position as two of the complainants. "She neither shows nor even seeks to show that she is in the same position in fact and in law as others who are claiming the allowance in complaints to the Tribunal. So her application is [...] irreceivable."

  "The precedents have it that a right is 'acquired' when someone who has it may, because of its fundamental importance to the balance of rights and duties that define the relationship of employment, demand that it be respected not withstanding any amendment to the rules: see Judgments 61, 368 [...], 832, 986 [...] and, under 6, 1330 [...]."

  Consideration 10

  Extract:

  A staff member's application to intervene succeeds "insofar as his claims concur with the complainant's and he is in like case. But insofar as he objects to certain statements in the surrejoinder and seeks compensation for injury the organisation's attitude caused him, he is raising issues of no relevance to this case and to that extent his application is irreceivable."
