Summary of last week's townhall on the pay cut | Résumé de la Réunion générale de la semaine passée sur les coupes salariales
- Details

Thank you for coming to our townhall last week on how staff unions in Geneva are moving forward against the pay cut.
Our broadcast released over the summer, explained the revised decision of the ICSC following our collective and vigorous campaign. The cut is now significantly less than the original 7.7 percent. Nevertheless, it is still a cut.
We have therefore supported several hundreds of you in making legal claims and we are following this closely.
We are also liaising with our counterparts in the specialized agencies as these organizations have more latitude on this question. Several are reluctant to implement the cut, particularly for the time-being. We believe this will apply important pressure on the ICSC.
Further we are preparing for the upcoming review of the post adjustment system to ensure that we have a pay system that is predictable and fit for purpose.
We will also be taking this up at the General Assembly in the fall.
We will continue to keep you updated.
