Disciplinary matters / misconduct
Disciplinary measure or sanction
Fraud, misrepresentation and false certification
Staff selection (non-selection/non-promotion)
The P-11 clearly states that any misrepresentation or material omission made on a P-11 or other document requested by the Organization renders a staff member of the United Nations liable to termination or dismissal. The Applicant deliberately submitted a P-11 misrepresenting his educational background and submitted a certificate which he knew to be forged. Therefore, UNHCR decision to summarily dismiss the Applicant was well-founded.
