As to sexual harassment, the UNDT considered that relevant factors (such as
whether the behaviour of the offender was objectively unlawful or harsh, fearful, repetitive,
persistent, intolerable and incompatible with a direct and continuous supervision of the victim),
especially if combined, deserved the maximal sanction, i.e. the offender’s dismissal or separation;
however, absent globally those factors, the sanction should be milder, especially when like in
Mr. (...) The UNDT properly found that the
misconduct took place outside of the workplace and had limited impact on the work environment,
as well as without ill intent by Mr. (...) The second and broader one has the preventative aim of promoting a positive work environment
and preventing inappropriate behaviour in the workplace.
