The UNOG Staff Union represents all staff at UNOG (which includes UNCTAD, OCHA, ECE, OHCHR, UNRISD and other UN Secretariat staff in Geneva)*. The Council of the union has 25 seats, which are filled by election every year. The Council in turn elects an Executive Bureau.

We:

• work to promote your welfare and rights.
• represent you on a range of issues to management in Geneva and New York, as well as management of individual departments.
• keep you informed of developments that affect you.
• work to reflect your interests in policies and conditions of service.
• provide advice and legal assistance to victims of harassment and unjust decisions (conditions apply).
• participate in the bodies that review the correctness of selection decisions, as well as the ePas rebuttal, special post adjustment and related committees.
• represent your interests in the complimentary health insurance group (GPAFI), the savings and loans mutual (La Mutuelle), and the catering services committee.
• contribute to the Staff Benevolent Fund.
• oversee and support all staff bodies such as the clubs and societies, SAFI, the UN Today magazine, and the UN beach.
