UNDT/2020/102, Eng

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The application was not receivable because the Applicant did not derive negative consequences from the putative error in the EOD date.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

The Applicant contested the Administration’s refusal to retroactively change her entry on duty (“EOD”) date with the United Nations Common System (“UNCS”) from 30 July 2008 to 15 October 1996.

Legal Principle(s)

Entry of data in the official record is a prefatory/preparatory act. Thus, a decision refusing to correct an EOD date is not appealable as such a staff member may only appeal when an incorrect entry misinforms a decision causing concrete negative consequence for the terms of appointment or contract.

Outcome
Dismissed as not receivable
Outcome Extra Text

There was no appealable administrative decision.
