| schestowitz[TR] | In one of its past intranet publications, the administration stated that: | Jan 28 02:47 |
| schestowitz[TR] | “The Office strives to provide comprehensive health support for all colleagues, coupled with an attractive, family-friendly benefits package. To help staff to reconcile their work and family responsibilities, the Office will make our parental leave scheme more flexible as of 1 January 2023. In practice, that means the minimum duration of parental leave is now reduced to seven calendar days.” | Jan 28 02:47 |
| schestowitz[TR] | These promises are however not reflected in the more recent announcements made in directorate and team meetings. Higher production targets for 2024 are now set by an increase of capacity. In practice, in directorate and team meetings, staff are discouraged from taking parental leave, family leave, or part-time, and part-timers are asked to increase their working time. | Jan 28 02:47 |
| schestowitz[TR] | To justify this additional burden put on staff, the administration argues that the “New Ways of Working” have brought a flexibility that equals or even surpasses the advantages of the parental leave, family leave, and part-time. This new practice was announced in the Financial Study 2023: | Jan 28 02:47 |
| schestowitz[TR] | “Achieving the productivity increase of 2.1% p.a. in the PGP (measured by products per FTE) is an Office wide effort that everyone will have to contribute to, e.g., by developing and providing state-of-the-art technological infrastructure and tools, fostering operational excellence across all DGs and fully leveraging flexibility through new ways of working.” (see Financial Study 2023, Oliver Wyman and Mercer, CA/68/23, page 99/1 | Jan 28 02:47 |

| schestowitz[TR] | Last year SUEPO provided a request for review template (RfR) to challenge the Rewards Exercise 2023. | Jan 28 02:50 |
| schestowitz[TR] | Some of you submitted a RfR and received a negative decision from the administration. The deadline to submit an appeal is within 3 months from the date of your RfR rejection. For some of you it is therefore already the time to file an internal appeal.' | Jan 28 02:50 |
