*Please see the frequently asked questions (FAQs) from this conference.*

For those of you not proposed for promotion or reclassification and who feel the reason is not related to your performance but to other reasons: change of unit/department, parental/maternity leave, change of line manager, personal conflicts etc., you may file an appeal in Sysper.

Generation 2004 will discuss how to draft such an appeal and answer your questions. The conference will take place on Thursday 17 June 12.00-14.00 via Webex.

Five percent of the overall promotion quota) is dedicated to those who appeal and agreed upon by the Joint Promotion Committees in October, where Generation 2004 participates.

Please be aware that you must file your appeal within 5 working days from the date of publication of the proposal lists (normally 24 June (25 for Luxembourg: happy national day!)) [*].

Your appeal will be examined by the Joint Promotion Committee and may result in your name being added to the list of promotion proposals. Ultimately however, it is the Appointing Authority that takes the decision to promote members of staff.

As usual Generation 2004 will assist colleagues by reviewing draft appeals and offering advice on how to improve your appeal text. To do so, please register via our online form and we will then contact you to let you know who from our team will work with you and to arrange for a meeting if you prefer to talk to us.

Please beware that it is up to you to draft your (short) appeal and we will review your draft but, due the number of cases and the shortness of the period, we are unable to write it for you or with you. To help you get started please feel free to download and use our template.

For any other questions do not hesitate to ask us.

[*] Luxembourg, the deadline is Friday at midnight: if the ‘appeal tab’ is no longer visible then do this:

HR AMC LUX APPRAISAL PROMOTION <HR-AMC-LUX-APPRAISAL-PROMOTION@ec.europa.eu>Dear colleagues,

I would like to file my appeal against my exclusion in the list of proposal for promotion this year. However, the corresponding tab in Sysper is no longer available. I am based in Luxembourg and Wednesday was a public holiday here. Which to me suggests that the period of 5 working days ends today (Friday) and not already yesterday (Thursday).

Would you please advise how I should continue?
