  3. What is the personal promotion system ? Personal Promotion means promotion to the grade immediately above that of the grade corresponding to the tasks performed There are two kinds of personal promotion: - By seniority, i.e. after 25 years of satisfactory service and 13 years in the same grade( Circular 6/517 of 21 December 1994) - By merit (Circular 6/334 of 20 July1985, revised in1989)

  4. The Applicable Rules For personal promotions based on merit, the overall number is restricted to 5 % of the positions of a category (G, NO, P). -A personal promotion is granted only once in the official’s career -It applies to FT and WLT staff in the P, NO and G category, not to Technical Cooperation staff. -It cannot result in a “jump” from one category to another (G to NO or P, NO to P, P to D). A personal promotion does not change the grade of the job performed by the official BUT is recognized for entitlement to transfers at equal (higher) grade !

  5. The Procedures (I) For Personal Promotion by seniority: HRD checks eligibility (25 years of satisfactory service and 13 years in the same grade), then the PP follows automatically (only 1 PP over the whole career period).

  6. For personal promotion based on merit: HRD draws up a list of officials having completed 13 years of service in the same grade, but not yet 25 years if satisfactory service, and who have not received a PP already, then A Selection Board of 3 persons (HRD, independent, SUC) The Procedures (II) submits a recommendation to the DG on the basis of the following elements: -assessment of merit provided by the official’s responsible chief (on standard form) -         statement of experience, qualifications and other relevant information provided by the official (on standard form) -         review of the official’s personal file.

  7. Problematic Issues Barriers established between categories Personal promotions viewed as a substitute for career development IS ACCESS TO ONE MERIT PERSONAL PROMOTION OVER A WORKING LIFE NOT ENOUGH, OR ALREADY TOO MUCH AS TESTIFYING TO A FAILURE BY THE ILO TO USE RECOGNIZED TALENTS ?
