Following the special Staff-Management Committee (SMC) session, which was held last week in Pristina (23-29 June), we would like to briefly inform you of the work accomplished.
The SMC focused on the UN80 Initiative, the current financial and liquidity crisis, and on possible mitigation measures to limit the impacts on staff, their livelihoods, conditions of service and wellbeing. Throughout an intense week of discussions, we made persistent efforts to reach agreements with management for the benefit of staff.
As we wait for the SMC report to be approved by the Secretary-General and made public, we would like to share with you some notable outcomes.
