UNDT/2024/051 | SYSTEM OF ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE

UNDT/2024/051, Shaban

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The Applicant in this case was given the opportunity to complete his application with the mandatory prerequisite for the filing of an application before the UNDT. The Applicant appears to have misunderstood what constitutes a “management evaluation request”. He assumed that querying the process with the hiring manager, and later, the Mission’s Chief of Staff, constitutes “management evaluation” for the purposes of proceedings before the UNDT. It does not.

Decision Contested or Judgment Appealed

The Applicant challenged his non-selection to the GS-6 post of Information Technology Assistant which he had applied to.

Legal Principle(s)

In accordance with staff rules 11.2(a) and (c), and art. 8(1)(c) of the Tribunal’s Statute it was incumbent on the Applicant to seek review of the decision he wishes to impugn by the Management Advice and Evaluation Section.
