Consideration 6
Extract:
In an earlier judgment the Tribunal ordered the WHO to reinstate the complainant or, failing that, to pay him compensation. The WHO paid him the compensation after stating in a letter to him that it was unable to reinstate him. "The letter [...] does not say why reinstating him proved impossible. It is mere notification, not an explanation [...] its decision not to reinstate him therefore cannot stand."

Consideration 15
Extract:
"The procedural flaw caused the complainant injury. As to the relief she is entitled to on that account, the Tribunal holds that it is not advisable to grant her the redress that would ordinarily be the consequence of quashing the impugned decision, namely reinstatement. The Tribunal therefore exercises the discretion vested in it by Article VIII of its Statute and instead awards the complainant damages for the breach of procedure. It sets the amount at the equivalent of one year's salary and allowances."

Consideration 23
Extract:
"In these cases the burden of CERN's obligation was at its lightest since the benefits [the complainants were denied] of early departure were conferred ex gratia and the purpose of the scheme was to meet a need for structural reform which the organization is the sole judge of. Yet it did not discharge even that minimal obligation. And its omission is compounded by its failure to keep its explicit promise to give every unsuccessful applicant a written explanation".

Consideration 3
Extract:
"Rule 1050.2 provides: 'When a post of indefinite duration, which is filled, is abolished, a reduction in force shall take place, in accordance with procedures established by the Director'. The procedures are set out in detail in the Manual of the WHO, and it is clear that the rules preclude the termination of an appointment until the reduction-in-force procedure has been completed. The notice [given to her] was therefore invalid, and in keeping with the reasoning in Judgment 469 the complainant's contract is renewed by implication and remains in force. She is entitled to payment of the salary and allowances due under her contract less any indemnity of earnings she may have received in the meantime."

Summary
Extract:
The complainant submitted an application for execution of Judgment 922 that set aside the decision to dismiss him. The UPU subsequently notified the Tribunal that it had reversed the decision and would offer the complainant compensation. The Tribunal took note of the Union's undertaking and awarded him 10,000 Swiss francs in damages for all the forms of injury he sustained and 1,000 francs towards costs.

Summary
Extract:
The complainant objects to a reckoning giving effect to Judgment 922, which set aside the decision to dismiss him and ordered payment of damages, insofar as the amount he got did not allow him the benefit of a further yearly salary increment. As the complainant's performance had not been declared satisfactory and therefore failed to meet the condition set out in the relevant rules, the Tribunal dismisses the claim.

Decision
Extract:
The decision not to renew the complainant's contract is set aside. The Tribunal holds that in the circumstances reinstatement would not be advisable.

Summary
Extract:
The complainant was transferred without prior consultation of the Selection Board as required under Article 4.2(f) of the Staff Regulations. The Tribunal holds that the breach of procedure was minor, though it did cause the complainant injury. The Tribunal will therefore refrain from quashing the impugned decision and will order the organisation to pay the complainant damages and a further sum towards costs.

Summary
Extract:
In Judgment 868 the Tribunal quashed the decision to dismiss the complainant on the grounds of unsatisfactory performance and referred the case back to the Union. The organisation having merely confirmed its earlier decision without further inquiry, the new decision is set aside and "the Union shall pay the complainant damages equivalent to the sums he would have been paid had he remained on the staff from the date of his dismissal up to the date of this judgment."

Considerations
Extract:
The complainant was accused of submitting false certificates for sick leave and was dismissed for serious misconduct. He claims to have been unaware that the certificates were false at the time he presented them and that, while awaiting the outcome of the judicial inquiry underway, he should be presumed innocent. The complainant's dismissal was confirmed by the Chief of personnel. That decision was "defective in that it did not reply to the complainant's letter inviting the organization to wait for the outcome of the trial and did not require him to furnish his full defence. It was made without the complainant's having fully exercised his right to be heard." Because it is tainted with a procedural flaw, the decision is quashed and the Tribunal orders the complainant to be reinstated and awarded an amount equivalent to the pay which he lost between the date of dismissal and that of reinstatement.

Summary
Extract:
The Tribunal holds that the transfer, later reversed, to a post three grades lower was unlawful. Although the complainant's attitude may not have been beyond reproach, he suffered moral injury and loss of reputation. Under the circumstances, the amount of compensation provided by the impugned decision is too small and the Tribunal increases it from the equivalent of two to six months' take-home salary.

Summary
Extract:
The reason given for non-renewal of the complainant's contract was unsatisfactory performance. The evaluation report for 1981 was signed long after the time limit laid down in the Staff Rules. Only a few weeks elapsed between the completion of the 1981 report and the processing of the 1982 report. As a result, the impugned decision took no account of the fact that between the complainant's two last performance reports he was not given time to add his objections or to show he could come up to expectation. The decision overlooked an essential fact and drew clearly mistaken conclusions from the evidence. The complainant is entitled to damages.

Consideration 3
Extract:
The Tribunal had ordered the organisation to pay as compensation a sum equal to "three times the total gross remuneration" paid in respect of a particular time period. "The Tribunal does not accept the organisation's argument that overtime is not part of the total gross remuneration; accordingly the deduction in respect of this item is unjustified."
