UNDT/2019/162, Gusarova

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The Tribunal notes that though the application against the MEU’s decision to dismiss a request for management evaluation and claim of abuse of authority and harassment is different from the decision of the OIAI to dismiss a claim on abuse of authority and not to conduct an investigation, the decision which is being contested before the Tribunal is principally the same as the one which was contested at the MEU level, with only a few editorial differences.Therefore, the application is receivable.

Decision Contested or Judgment Appealed

The decision of the Management Evaluation Unit (MEU) to uphold the decision of the Office of Internal Audit and Investigations (OIAI) to dismiss her claim of abuse of authority and harassment.
