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]
