TRIBUNAL, ILO

This request message is for Tribunal, ILO:
The World Intellectual Property Organization is known for injustice. There are many employees who are continuously on Short Term Contracts for years (minimum 5 to 12 years). It is not a normal practice and condemned widely.

It is heard that the Short Term Employment cases are not considered as the employee has signed the contract and is abide by the conditions given in the contract.

Normally, the employee has no choice so far as Contract is concerned. In general, the language of the contract should be in tune with the UN Common System and not according to the choice of the employer. The contract should not be biased and conditional just to protect the employer only. Right and Duties must be clear for both - employer and employee. So far as my knowledge is concerned, the conditions in the contract for Short Term Employees in WIPO is one sided only.

Recently in a case filed against WIPO, the language of the contract is challenged by the employee whose contract is terminated on false allegations.

I hope due attention will be paid to the "Contracts" whether it covers all legal obligations on the part of the organization. Signing a contract is secondary part of the contract, as employee has no choice.

The term "contract break" is misused in WIPO. There should be a common rule for the Contract Break.

I request the Administrative Tribunal, ILO that Contract and its terms be viewed in light of both Employer Vs Employees. The terms mentioned in the "Contract" should not favor the employer only.
