Considerations 5-6
Extract:
Regarding the alleged substantive flaws in the contested staff report, the complainant’s contention to the effect that the overall performance marking which he received lacks proper basis as it does not correspond to his performance for the period of assessment is based on the complainant’s subjective view of his performance for that period rather than upon any discernible unlawfulness within the Tribunal’s limited power of review. It is accordingly unfounded.
It is notable, as the EPO points out, that the contested report conveys a favourable assessment of the complainant’s performance. Moreover, he does not allege any adverse effect arising from this favourable evaluation nor does he allege that the positive markings he received have caused or are liable to cause him any injury. In fact, the complainant fails to prove that the markings and the overall performance rating he was awarded in the contested staff report were in breach of a proper procedure and did not benefit from a thorough assessment. The Tribunal is satisfied, as is obvious from the Appeals Committee’s conclusion, which was accepted in the impugned decision, that the complainant’s reporting and countersigning officers fairly substantiated the markings and the overall performance rating they awarded to him in the report.
