UNDT/2015/070, Gordon
The administrative instruction ST/AI/2011/6 (Mobility allowance), which superseded ST/AI/2007/1 (Mobility allowance), was applicable to the Applicant’s request for mobility allowance submitted in January 2012. ST/AI/2011/6 included the requirement of five years of continuous service in the United Nations common system, which in the present case was not fulfilled. The Tribunal found that the Applicant was not eligible because she did not meet one of the requirements for payment of the mobility allowance, namely five years of continuous service in the United Nations common system.
The Applicant contested the decision from the Department of Field Support (DFS) and the Office of Human Resources Management (“OHRM”) finding her not eligible for the benefit of mobility allowance on the grounds she did not meet the requirements of qualifying continuous five years of service in the United Nations common system.
