CISUA Mid-Term Meeting, New York, 16-18 November 2021
After almost two years of entirely virtual meetings, the Coordinating Committee for International Staff Unions and Associations (CCISUA) decided that it was time for its constituent unions and staff associations to meet face-to-face to take stock of staff concerns and issues within the UN common system.
Hosted at UNICEF, it was an opportunity to actively discuss various topics of common interest such as the consequences for staff of the work on the future of work at the United Nations, the contracts policy, the new methodologies of the G and P salary surveys, the consequences for staff of the pandemic and the emerging new forms of work, security in the field and an update on the collaboration between the two administrative tribunals. It was also an opportunity to realize how the lack of coherence between the different agencies of the common system in terms of vaccination, return to the Office, flexible working hours had a significant impact on the “One UN” concept.
