Local Staff - Revised Proposal by the Management

The issue of Local Staff (LS) has been discussed since May 2002 at successive meetings of TREF and the Committees, leading to a proposal document by the Management, which was submitted to the Finance Committee and the Council in March 2003. At that time, the Council adopted a Resolution supporting the introduction of LS within the shortest possible time-scale, along the general lines discussed at TREF, while requesting the Director-General '...to reconsider the salary scale proposed.., and in particular to examine whether there is a more cost-effective salary level for Local Staff that would allow the Organization to attract and retain the Local Staff needed.'
