L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que le DT de l'UNRWA avait commis une erreur en jugeant recevable la demande de Mme Fakhouri.

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que, bien qu'elle f?t membre du personnel, la d¨¦cision contest¨¦e par Mme Fakhouri concernait les conditions d'un contrat potentiel non pas en tant que membre du personnel, mais en tant que contractante ind¨¦pendante, et que, par cons¨¦quent, la d¨¦cision contest¨¦e n'¨¦tait pas susceptible de recours. Le TUNU a soulign¨¦ que l'article 2(1)(a) du Statut du DT de l'UNRWA stipule clairement que les recours peuvent ¨ºtre form¨¦s contre les d¨¦cisions administratives lorsque ces...

Le TUNAT a not¨¦ que la fonctionnaire avait d¨¦pos¨¦ de nombreuses plaintes et demandes confuses qui avaient fait l'objet de divers examens par l'Unit¨¦ d'¨¦valuation de la gestion, le TFP et le TUNAT, qui visaient tous essentiellement ¨¤ garantir que l'Administration continue de lui verser des prestations pour raisons m¨¦dicales apr¨¨s l'expiration de son engagement ¨¤ dur¨¦e d¨¦termin¨¦e.

Le TUNAT a estim¨¦ que ses observations ne permettaient pas d'identifier avec pr¨¦cision une d¨¦cision administrative sp¨¦cifique susceptible d'¨ºtre r¨¦examin¨¦e. Le TUNI a estim¨¦ que les pr¨¦tendues non-d¨¦cisions ou d¨¦cisions...

L'UNAT a not¨¦ que les primes d'assurance maladie impos¨¦es par l'UPU en 2023 variaient en fonction de facteurs tels que l'?ge, le statut de retraite et le pays de r¨¦sidence.

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que l'argument des requ¨¦rants concernant le principe de solidarit¨¦ utilis¨¦ dans la l¨¦gislation suisse en mati¨¨re de s¨¦curit¨¦ sociale n'¨¦tait pas fond¨¦, car ce principe n'¨¦tait plus appliqu¨¦ par l'UPU depuis plusieurs ann¨¦es.

L'UNAT a d¨¦termin¨¦ que le taux de contribution de l'UPU ne diff¨¦rait pas entre les diff¨¦rents groupes d'?ge et qu'il n'y avait aucune preuve que les augmentations de primes ¨¦taient...

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que les faits avaient ¨¦t¨¦ ¨¦tablis par des preuves claires et convaincantes. Il a estim¨¦ que le t¨¦moignage de la plaignante ¨¦tait coh¨¦rent avec ses d¨¦clarations ant¨¦rieures, ¨¤ l'exception de la date de l'incident. Toutefois, la correction de la date qu'elle a apport¨¦e lors de l'audience a ¨¦t¨¦ jug¨¦e de bonne foi et n'a pas nui ¨¤ sa cr¨¦dibilit¨¦. Son r¨¦cit a ¨¦t¨¦ corrobor¨¦ par deux autres membres du personnel, M.V. et M.M., qui ont tous deux t¨¦moign¨¦ devant le TDPI. Le TNP a ¨¦galement estim¨¦ que l'ancien membre du personnel n'avait pas d¨¦montr¨¦ que ces t¨¦moins avaient un motif...

Le TUNC a not¨¦ que l'outil de classification des emplois de l'Agence avait ¨¦t¨¦ utilis¨¦ pour reclasser les postes des membres du personnel. Le TUNC a estim¨¦ que le DT de l'UNRWA n'avait pas commis d'erreur en statuant sur l'affaire en l'absence du document complet intitul¨¦ ? Master Standard for Classification ? (Norme principale de classification) de la Commission de la fonction publique internationale. Le TUNC a donn¨¦ raison au Commissaire g¨¦n¨¦ral en estimant que les rapports de classification ¨¦taient pertinents et suffisants pour les d¨¦cisions du DT de l'UNRWA.

Le TUNAT a estim¨¦ que, malgr¨¦...

L'UNAT a not¨¦ que le fonctionnaire avait ¨¦t¨¦ inform¨¦ par courrier ¨¦lectronique du reclassement du poste qu'il occupait, sans commentaires sur les motifs de cette d¨¦cision. L'UNAT a ¨¦galement not¨¦ qu'il n'avait pas ¨¦t¨¦ promu au poste reclass¨¦ avant de quitter le service.

Le TUNAT a estim¨¦ que le TUD avait correctement d¨¦termin¨¦ que le fonctionnaire savait ou aurait d? raisonnablement savoir, ¨¤ la date ¨¤ laquelle il avait re?u la notification du reclassement ou, au plus tard, ¨¤ la date ¨¤ laquelle le poste reclass¨¦ avait ¨¦t¨¦ publi¨¦ dans Inspira, que son poste avait ¨¦t¨¦ reclass¨¦ et qu'il n'avait...

The UNAT noted that the Agency¡¯s job classification tool had been used to reclassify the staff members¡¯ posts. The UNAT found that the UNRWA DT had not erred when it had decided the case in the absence of the full document of the International Civil Service Commission¡¯s ¡°Master Standard for Classification¡±. The UNAT agreed with the Commissioner-General that the Classification Reports were relevant and sufficient for the UNRWA DT¡¯s determinations.

The UNAT held that notwithstanding the various anomalies in the reclassification process, the staff members had failed to show anything specific that...

The UNAT noted that the health insurance premiums imposed by the UPU in 2023 differed according to factors such as age, retirement status and country of residence.

The UNAT held that there was no support for the appellants' contention regarding the principle of solidarity used in the Swiss social security law, as for several years such principle had no longer been applied by the UPU.

The UNAT determined that the rate of the UPU¡¯s contribution did not differ between the various age groups and there was no evidence that the premium increases were inconsistent with the costs the insurance...

Le TUNAT a estim¨¦ qu'au-del¨¤ du signalement au Bureau des services de contr?le interne (BSCI) d'un ¨¦ventuel comportement interdit li¨¦ au non-respect des r¨¨gles et r¨¨glements financiers de l'Organisation des Nations Unies, le fonctionnaire n'avait aucun autre int¨¦r¨ºt juridique dans la conduite de l'enqu¨ºte ou son issue. Le TUNAT a en outre confirm¨¦ l'avis du TUDN selon lequel l'affirmation du fonctionnaire selon laquelle le BSCI avait refus¨¦ d'ouvrir une enqu¨ºte sur son signalement ¨¦tait sans fondement. Le TUNAT a conclu que le TUDN n'avait pas commis d'erreur en jugeant irrecevable la demande...

The UNAT found that the UNRWA DT erred when it found Ms. Fakhouri¡¯s application was receivable.

The UNAT held that despite being a staff member, the decision with which Ms. Fakhouri took issue was one which related to the terms of a potential contract not as a staff member but as an independent contractor and therefore the contested decision was not one that was appealable. The UNAT emphasized that Article 2(1)(a) of the UNRWA DT Statute makes clear that appeals can be brought against administrative decisions where such decisions relate to the staff member¡¯s terms of appointment. But the...

The UNAT noted that the staff member had filed numerous and confusing claims and applications that had been the subject of various reviews by the Management Evaluation Unit, the UNDT and the UNAT, all of which essentially attempted to ensure that the Administration continued to pay her benefits for medical reasons after expiration of her fixed-term appointment.

The UNAT held that her submissions failed to identify in precise terms a specific administrative decision capable of being reviewed. The UNAT found that the so-called non-decisions or incomplete decisions identified by her were not...

The UNAT noted that the staff member had been notified of the reclassification of the post he encumbered by e-mail without comments on the basis for the decision. The UNAT also noted that he had not been promoted to the reclassified post before separation from service.

The UNAT found that the UNDT had correctly determined that the staff member knew or reasonably should have known by the date he received notification of the reclassification or, at the very latest, by the date the vacancy of the reclassified post was advertised in Inspira, that his post had been reclassified and that he had not...

The UNAT found that beyond reporting the possible prohibited conduct concerning non-compliance with the United Nations financial rules and regulations to the Office of Internal Oversight Services, the staff member had no further interest in law in the conduct of the investigation or its outcome. The UNAT further agreed with the UNDT that there was no basis for his assertion that OIOS had declined to conduct an investigation into his report. The UNAT concluded that the UNDT had not erred in finding the application concerning this decision not receivable.

Regarding the staff member¡¯s complaint...

The UNAT held that the facts were established by clear and convincing evidence. It held that the Complainant¡¯s testimony was consistent with her earlier statements, except for the date of the incident. However, the correction of the date she made at the hearing was found to be in good faith and did not undermine her credibility. Her account was corroborated by two other staff members, M.V. and M.M., both of whom testified before the UNDT. The UNAT also held that the former staff member failed to show that these witnesses had any motive to falsely implicate him. It noted that the former...

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que la restructuration de la fonction financi¨¨re par l'Administration ¨¦tait une mesure l¨¦gitime et un usage appropri¨¦ du pouvoir discr¨¦tionnaire de l'Administration pour r¨¦pondre ¨¤ l'¨¦volution des besoins. L'UNAT n'a pas consid¨¦r¨¦ que l'Administration avait agi de mani¨¨re injuste ou in¨¦quitable en supprimant le poste de l'ancienne fonctionnaire. L'UNAT a en outre estim¨¦ qu'il n'¨¦tait pas n¨¦cessaire de consulter l'ancienne fonctionnaire avant la suppression de son poste.

Le TUNAT a estim¨¦ que le m¨¦contentement de l'ancienne fonctionnaire ¨¤ l'¨¦gard de l'¨¦valuation par le TUDT des...

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ qu'il incombait au fonctionnaire de prouver que le fait que le Secr¨¦taire g¨¦n¨¦ral n'ait pas r¨¦agi aux politiques discriminatoires du pays h?te et ¨¤ la tentative pr¨¦sum¨¦e des autorit¨¦s charg¨¦es de l'application de la loi de ce pays h?te de le recruter constituait une d¨¦cision unilat¨¦rale prise par l'Administration, qui s'appliquait ¨¤ lui individuellement et avait des cons¨¦quences juridiques directes sur ses conditions d'engagement ou son contrat de travail. Le TFP a estim¨¦ que le fonctionnaire ne pouvait pas s'acquitter de cette charge, car ces questions relevaient du domaine de...

The UNAT held that the Administration¡¯s restructuring of the finance function was a genuine exercise and a proper use of the Administration¡¯s discretion in responding to evolving needs. The UNAT did not agree that the Administration acted unfairly or unjustly in abolishing the former staff member¡¯s post. The UNAT further held that consultation with the former staff member was not required prior to the abolition of her post.

The UNAT found that the former staff member¡¯s dissatisfaction with the UNDT¡¯s assessment of the evidence of workplace issues between her and her supervisor does not...

The UNAT held that the staff member bore the burden of proving that the Secretary-General¡¯s failures to address both the discriminatory policies of the host country and the alleged attempt of the law enforcement authorities of that host country to recruit him, constituted unilateral decisions taken by the Administration, which applied to him individually, and had direct legal consequences on his terms of appointment or contract of employment. The UNAT held that the staff member could not meet this burden because these issues fell within the realm of diplomacy, are subject to the rules of...

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que le fonctionnaire connaissait tous les faits pertinents et avait ¨¦t¨¦ suffisamment inform¨¦ et d?ment notifi¨¦ de la d¨¦cision contest¨¦e au plus tard le 18 mai 2023 afin de pouvoir d¨¦poser une demande d'¨¦valuation de la direction dans les d¨¦lais impartis. Or, le fonctionnaire n'a d¨¦pos¨¦ sa demande d'¨¦valuation de la direction que le 16 septembre 2023, soit apr¨¨s l'expiration du d¨¦lai de 60 jours.

Le TUNI a observ¨¦ que l'objet des ¨¦changes de courriels en ao?t 2023 entre l'Administration et le fonctionnaire ¨¦tait des demandes de ? clarification ? du fondement d'une d¨¦cision...

L'UNAT a not¨¦ que plusieurs mois apr¨¨s le d¨¦c¨¨s du participant au Fonds, l'appelant avait produit des formulaires Pens.A/2 visant ¨¤ modifier la d¨¦signation du b¨¦n¨¦ficiaire du r¨¨glement r¨¦siduel, sign¨¦s d'une empreinte digitale et non de la signature du participant. L'UNAT a ¨¦galement pris note des preuves m¨¦dicales attestant des signes de d¨¦mence du participant.

L'UNAT a estim¨¦ que l'appelant n'avait fourni aucune preuve ¨¤ l'appui de son affirmation selon laquelle les capacit¨¦s mentales du participant s'¨¦taient am¨¦lior¨¦es au moment o¨´ il avait appos¨¦ son empreinte digitale sur les formulaires...
