Abstract :

The periodicity of salary increments for the Senior Counsellor and Professional category of staff is currently established in Staff Regulation 3.4 applicable to appointed staff.
Due to an error in the Staff Regulations, the periodicity for the D1 level in ITU is not aligned with the United Nations Common System of Salaries, Allowances and Benefits, as established by the International Civil Service Commission (ICSC).
To align the Staff Regulations with the ICSC and to simplify future amendments, it is proposed that this level of detail in the Staff Regulations be removed, making direct reference to the ICSC standard.
This item was discussed at the Council Working Group on Finance and Human Resources which recommended an amendment to the original proposal from the Secretariat, and which is reflected in this new proposal.
