Welcome to the seventh edition of the Generation 2004 newsletter of 2023. We start with the time-sensitive first: Contract Agent colleagues have 5 working days to request to be included on the reclassification list (this makes the deadline end of Monday 03.07.2023 for most). Staff in agencies demonstrated 06.06.2023 in Brussels and we were there to show our support. We shine a light on the lack of transparency in decision-making e.g. how a transfer in might have no impact on your pension or how to gather the information you need when you want to leave. We are pleased to see that Parliament has had a change of heart on salaries lower than the Luxembourg minimum wage: will the Commission one day follow suit? We  consider the proposed changes in the European Schools and look for volunteers. We explain the recent salary update and provide a summary of the ongoing EPSO rollercoaster ride and invite you to share your experience in our survey.

So, that’s it for this this edition, thanks to all of you for your support, ideas and feedback: please keep it coming!

Take care and enjoy reading!
