The amount transferred into each individual SSP account was calculated according to the contributions paid in 2020. Consequently, the chosen distribution key heavily favours those in the higher grades and provides [01:03] schestowitz disproportionately large sums when compared to those in the lower grades. The CSC had already reported on the distribution key in this publication. [01:03] schestowitz [01:03] schestowitz In case you would like to challenge the cash injections into your SSP, you need to file a request for review (RfR) before xxxxxxxxxxxx as follows: [01:03] schestowitz [01:03] schestowitz Fill in the Word template with your personal data and your signature, [01:03] schestowitz Convert the filled in RfR into a PDF, [01:03] schestowitz Retrieve your salary slip of January 2021 from xxxxxxxxxxxx [01:03] schestowitz Send your filled in RfR PDF together with your salary slip by email (with request for acknowledgment of receipt) to xxxxxxxxxxxxx [01:03] schestowitz [01:03] schestowitz Please keep a copy of the email you sent and of the PDFs in your paper archives and electronic archives. These documents will be necessary later for filing an internal appeal and for filing a complaint in front of ILOAT. [01:03] schestowitz [01:03] schestowitz A decision from the President is then due two months after filing the request for review. In case of a rejection, you will then have three months to file an internal appeal.
