Administrative Tribunals
Administrative Tribunals
In international organizations, there are tribunals established
to determine disputes arising from the relationship between international civil servants
and the institutions in which they are employed, such tribunals being 'essential
to ensure the effi cient working of the Secretariat, and to give effect to the paramount
consideration of securing the highest standards of effi ciency, competence and integrity':

also employment disputes in a small number of Specialized Agencies, and pension disputes
in others, the ILO (ILOAT), which covers also employment disputes in most of the
European-based Specialized Agencies, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and others.[1]
