Summary
Extract:
The complainant alleges breach of the principle of equality by a change in the rules governing the reckoning of professional experience from 1 January 1981 which is unfavourable to officials who, like himself, were recruited after that date. The Tribunal holds that the principle of equality does not require that officials appointed at different times should be treated alike.

Consideration 9
Extract:
The complainant, who was the victim of an accident, took up duty after the date originally agreed upon. The date on which she took up duty was set as her date of appointment. The delay in her recruitment did not lead to novation of the whole contract. Only one of the terms of the contract was altered. The others remained in force and were applied in full. The suspension of the contract did not lead to its annulation. If it had, the organisation might have refused to appoint the complainant when she became fit to start work. "Yet that would have been neither fair nor reasonable."
Keywords:
amendment to the rules; appointment; contract; date; elements; professional accident;
Consideration 2
Extract:
The Service Regulations provide for the date on which an appointment takes effect not to be prior to the date on which the official takes up his duties except in case of force majeure. This is "a corollary of the general rule that a unilateral act may not be retroactive." The organisation held "the belief that one term of the contract which governed relations between the two sides had proved unenforceable because of an incident beyond its control." The complainant, who had been injured in an accident, was not fit to report for duty on the date she was due to start; there was not force majeure.

Consideration 3
Extract:
"The complainant argues that the unfair treatment lies in her being kept idle for so long. Accordingly the time limit for filing an appeal did not begin on the date on which her supervisor decided, while keeping her on her post, to give her no more work: the injury occurred only with the passage of time. Thus, although it was only after being kept idle for a considerable lapse of time that the complainant appealed to the Director-General, and then to the Tribunal, for compensation for the injury she alleged, her claims are not time-barred and her complaint is receivable."

Consideration 6
Extract:
The material date was that on which the complainant received the letter of termination. The period of notice should begin on that date and the termination payment and the disability payment should be calculated and paid accordingly. "Any other conclusion would offend against the rule that a decision must not be retroactive in effect. [...] No organisation may retroactively alter at will the position of its staff. The effect of the WHO's arrangement might be to do away with one of the benefits prescribed" in the material Staff Rules. The decision is set aside; the complainant's administrative position must be reviewed.

Consideration 15
Extract:
The complainant's letter of 29 November shows that he did not regard the letter of 22 November as a decision. "The good faith that is part of the link between the organization and its members requires that neither side should take advantage of an obvious misconstruction by the other of its intentions. The silence of the organization when it must clearly have seen that the complainant was [on its view] misreading the letter of 22 November prevents it from setting up that letter as a decision."

Consideration 5
Extract:
The organization adopted a more flexible approach in the application of the new rule: "Those [officials] appointed before the Finance Committee made its recommendation, who before had been informed of the possibility of qualifying for non-local status, or might have been, were still able to obtain such status despite the wording of the rule. There was strict application only to those appointed after the recommendation. The distinction between those appointed before and those appointed after rested on the fact that the former, unlike the latter, had or might have had the expectation of qualifying for non-local status some day."

Consideration 7
Extract:
The new rule came into force on 1 February 1975. Short-term officials recruited before this date, who were not then considered as non-local officials, were all given local status. The organization then distinguished between those officials who had been given short-term appointments before the end of October 1974 and those whose appointment was made between then and 1 February 1975. The former were given non-local status on the established terms and the latter were treated as local officials. "The difference in treatment between the two groups was warranted by the difference in the facts."
Keywords:
amendment to the rules; appointment; date; equal treatment; local status; non-local status; provision; staff regulations and rules;
Consideration 6
Extract:
The rule came into force on 1 February 1975, i.e. subsequent to the complainant's first short-term appointment. By refusing to grant the complainant non-local status, the Director-General based his decision on the fact that she did not benefit from such status on 1 February 1975, without taking account of what had happened before. "In other words, he did not apply the rule retroactively: he based his decision on the facts at the date when the rule came into force."

Consideration 4
Extract:
"The organisation's argument is that the time limit for filing the complaint started on [the date] the complainant's contract was extended [...]. The argument would succeed only if the later decisions [...] had merely confirmed the [extension] decision. But they did not. The extension of the contract [on the mentioned date] for three months did not necessarily mean that there would be no further extension."

Consideration 3
Extract:
The Staff Rules provide both for automatic termination of contract and advance notice. The Tribunal has consistently found that a decision not to re-appoint is required, as well as notice before the prescribed date. "To interpret the rule as terminating the appointment automatically on the expiry date whether or not a notification was given would not only do violence to the text by rendering the provision for notification otiose, but would also be unreasonable and unfair [...]."

Consideration 5
Extract:
If an advance notice was necessary it was given out of time and thus the appointment was not terminated. If it was not necessary, the appointment terminated automatically. "Presumably, it must be the view of the organization that the failure to give notice in time does prevent the automatic termination, but preserves the right of the organization to give a month's notice at any time thereafter, irrespective of whether the circumstances are normal or abnormal. The Tribunal cannot adopt this construction of the rule."

Consideration 4
Extract:
"First, if the organization grants a salary increase, not of its own accord, but as the result of appeal proceedings duly introduced by the official, the increase will take effect from the date on which the proceedings were introduced. Otherwise an official who obtains satisfaction without taking action would enjoy an unfair advantage over an official who has been obliged to take steps to pursue his claim. Secondly, if the transfer procedure is unreasonably prolonged for causes attributable to the organization, the official should not suffer for the delay. The increase will therefore take effect on the date on which it ought to have been granted."

Consideration 7
Extract:
"The complainant [...] had to wait six months for his promotion. It is immaterial whether the long and futile delay was the fault of any PAHO body. All that need be said is that it was entirely due to the way in which PAHO bodies worked and that the organization should make good the wrong by transferring the complainant with effect from the date on which he ought normally to have been transferred [...]. The organization shall [...] pay the complainant the difference between the sums due and those actually paid to him [...] and shall correct his personnel records accordingly."

"[T]here is a clear distinction between a contract to appoint and the appointment itself, and it is normal to have an interval between the two so as to allow for the preparation of the formal documents. The payment of salary and the start of the official's duties, including the duty to travel to his place of work, would naturally be contemporaneous and begin on a date to be fixed by the letter of appointment."

"It is immaterial that in its report [...] the Appeals Committee declared itself competent and so apparently overlooked [the provision which excludes appeals against the decision in question]. It is for the Tribunal to see whether Article VII of its own Statute is applicable: that means that in particular it must determine, with reference to the [organisation's] rules, the date on which the internal body of last instance took its decision and from which the ninety-day period therefore began to run."

It is for the competent committees and the Director-General to adapt the conditions of promotion to the requirements of the organisation. "Hence those conditions may change from year to year and, since they do so, different staff members are differently treated according to the dates on which they receive promotion. Where there are administrative reasons for such difference in treatment, it is no breach of the principle of equality."

Extract:
"The [organisation] was willing to sign the contract with the complainant as early as 1 October [...] the postponement to 21 October was due entirely to the attitude of the complainant, who of his own accord and for personal reasons delayed coming to [headquarters] [...] the [organisation], which did its utmost to have the complainant's contract ready by 1 October, was not to blame for any delay and was not at fault. The complainant alone was responsible for postponement of the signing of his contract to 21 October and on no grounds whatever can he properly claim any compensation in respect of the period prior to his appointment."

Extract:
The complainant reached the highest step in her grade some years ago. An amendment was adopted introducing three new steps in her grade. She should obtain the successive increments on the date at which she fulfilled the requisite conditions. The Director-General should take steps to ensure that a) the complainant is treated as if at the time the modification was implemented she had been at step XIV for a period of five months and b) each intervener is treated in the same way, according to length of service.

Considerations
Extract:
The Tribunal notes that the decisions of the Director-General were not promotions but reclassifications following the entry into force of the new Staff Regulations. These reclassifications "having been delayed for reasons for which the staff members are not responsible should be put into effect at the date on which the complainants took up their duties but, like the Staff Regulations themselves, not before 1 January 1971".
