CDR

R&D has been against the current CDR system since the beginning. But while it lasts, we think it’s our duty to do our best to help and defend colleagues. Over six months, a team of experts from R&D and the other trade unions have defended more than 3,500 appeals (2,000 AD and 1,500 AST).
R&D will confirm its strong position for a definitive abandonment of this system – that has proved to be highly unsatisfactory for both staff and middle management members.

Are 142 Staff Members (in Grades: AST 4D, AST6C, AST 10B and AD 13) Kids of a lesser God?
Staff Regulation are no longer respected by the whole ADMINISTRATION?
According to our R&D team involved in the appraisal and promotion procedure for 2010, DG HR’s analysis and proposals to the Joint Appraisal and Promotion Committees for AD and AST are much worse than the provisions of the consolidated Staff Regulations [STATUTE] for AST 4D, AST 6C, AST 10(ex B) and AD 13 officials.

The 2010 CDR appeals phase is coming to an end. As last year, over 3500 colleagues filed appeals, mostly those with 4 or 5 points. R&D together with other trade unions fiercely defended each and every appeal in the competent committees and working groups.
R&D demand an end to this disaster: we invite the Commissioner and DG HR to finally accept the exorbitant failure of the CDR in its entirety, and to follow best practices in other institutions.
We cannot accept another round of this nightmare for everybody involved next year!
