Decision

THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.

Considerations

Extract:

"The clauses [of the letter of appointment] are clearly worded and formally establish that the salary stated in the contract was exclusive of any allowance, indemnity or additional sum of any kind. Hence the complainant may not claim a 'separation allowance' since none was provided for in his contract. In any case no such allowance existed at the time the contract was concluded."
