Judgment 4808
137th Session, 2024
International Labour Organization
Extracts: EN,
FR
Full Judgment Text: EN,
FR
Summary: The complainant challenges the outcome of the investigation procedure conducted in respect of her harassment grievance and the resulting lack of compensation.
Consideration 13
Extract:
In the circumstances, the Tribunal should normally refer the matter to the Director-General in order for him to determine the redress that it would be appropriate to contemplate as compensation for the injury suffered by the complainant as a result of the harassment established. However, in view of the time that has elapsed and the fact that there is sufficient evidence and information in the file to enable the Tribunal to reach a decision on the nature of this redress and to properly assess the amount of compensation for moral injury claimed by the complainant, it would be inappropriate to do so in this case (see, for example, Judgments 4663, consideration 17, 4602, consideration 18, and 4471, consideration 20).

Consideration 13
Extract:
In the present case, the Tribunal does not have sufficient information that would enable it to reach an informed decision on the complainant’s harassment complaint. The investigation report before the Tribunal is so heavily redacted that much of the documentation relevant to the allegation of harassment, namely the witness statements, is omitted. […] In these circumstances, the Tribunal considers it appropriate to refer the case back to the Global Fund so that (unless the case is settled in the meantime): (i) the Appeal Board shall carry out a new internal appeal process, in line with due process requirements (including by giving the complainant the opportunity to comment on the investigation report and the evidence gathered, redacted as appropriate to safeguard the interests of third parties, in order to challenge or rectify them); and (ii) the Executive Director shall take a new decision on the Appeal Board’s recommendation.

Summary: The complainant filed an application for execution of Judgment 4480.
Consideration 6
Extract:
The Tribunal recalls that its judgments are “final and without appeal” under Article VI of its Statute, carry res judicata authority and are immediately operative. As they may not later be called into question except when an application for review is allowed, they must be executed by the parties as ruled. The parties must work together in good faith to execute judgments within a reasonable timeframe. Moreover, under the Tribunal’s case law, the application for execution may relate only to the execution of a judgment and not, for example, to the allegedly harmful consequences of the manner in which it was executed. When the Tribunal allows a complaint, sends the case back so that the organisation may resume or continue some procedure, and leaves it a degree of discretion, the new decision will ordinarily be subject to appeal, and in that case the internal remedies do have to be exhausted (see, for example, Judgment 1771, consideration 2(b)).

International Criminal Police Organization

Full Judgment Text: EN,
FR
Summary: The complainant challenges the refusal to acknowledge the harassment that she alleges she suffered and to provide her with the full inquiry report drawn up following her internal complaint against a colleague.
Considerations 17-18
Extract:
[T]he complainant does not request in her submissions that her complaint of harassment be remitted to the Organization for a thorough inquiry. She confines herself to claiming redress for moral injury and seeking an award of damages. In view of this, the Tribunal considers it inappropriate to refer the case back to the Organization. Rather, the appropriate course in this case is to award the complainant adequate compensation for the moral injury caused by the decisions that the Tribunal will set aside. The Tribunal considers that there is sufficient evidence and information in the file to enable it to reach a decision on the extent of this injury.
As can be seen from the foregoing, the complainant was deprived of her right to have a rigorous and thorough inquiry conducted into her complaint of harassment, which would, in all likelihood, have established that she had submitted a credible complaint of harassment in good faith. In addition, the complainant was deprived of her right to know whether the harassment against her had been acknowledged and of her right to receive the report of the preliminary inquiry into the complaint in good time.

Summary: The complainant challenges the calculation of the amounts transferred into the Eurocontrol scheme in respect of his previously-acquired pension rights and seeks compensation for the injury he considers he has suffered as a result of alleged negligence on the part of the Organisation.
Consideration 17
Extract:
In these circumstances the Tribunal’s case law recognises that it is appropriate to remit the matter to the Organisation to allow the internal appeal procedure to proceed to its conclusion (see, for example, Judgment 4499, consideration 13).
In that regard, it should be borne in mind that, according to the consistent case law of the Tribunal, “one of the main justifications for the mandatory nature of an internal appeal procedure is to enable the Tribunal, in the event that a complaint is ultimately filed, to have before it the findings of fact, items of information or assessment resulting from the deliberations of appeal bodies. Appeal bodies play a fundamental role in the resolution of disputes, owing to the guarantees of objectivity derived from their composition and their extensive knowledge of the functioning of the organisation” (see Judgment 4168, consideration 2; see also Judgments 4499, consideration 13, 3067, consideration 20, and 2781, consideration 15). There is all the more justification for the input of the internal appeal body in a case such as the present one which involves technical aspects.

Consideration 10
Extract:
According to the Tribunal’s case law, where an investigation into allegations of harassment is seriously flawed, the Tribunal in principle remits the matter to the organization concerned so that a new investigation can be conducted (see, for example, Judgment 4313, consideration 8, and Judgment 4111, consideration 8). In some specific situations the Tribunal may determine whether the harassment occurred (see, for example, Judgment 4241, consideration 15, and Judgment 4207, consideration 21). But in the present case, the Tribunal is satisfied it would not be appropriate to do so. In particular, given that the complainant is still employed by the ILO, in the event that a properly conducted investigation demonstrates that she was the victim of harassment, appropriate measures from the ILO may be warranted.

Summary: The complainant challenges the decision to dismiss his complaint of psychological harassment.
Consideration 16
Extract:
At this stage of its findings, the Tribunal should in principle remit the case to the Organisation for a fresh examination of the complainant’s internal complaint [...]. However, in view of the evidence in the file and the time that has elapsed, it appears more appropriate not to remit the case but to examine the lawfulness of the decision central to the dispute, that is, the Director General’s decision [...] to dismiss the psychological harassment complaint and to close the case (see, for a comparable case, Judgment 4167, consideration 5).

Considerations 19-20
Extract:
Since the Tribunal’s role is to determine whether the Director General and the preliminary investigation report on which he based his decision [...] demonstrate a careful examination of the objective circumstances surrounding the acts complained of, it is clear that the Tribunal is not in a position to do so without having the entire investigation report available. [...]
In such a situation, the Tribunal could therefore only remit the case to the Organisation for a fresh examination of the complainant’s harassment complaint for it to be properly handled.
