Living conditions allowance and rest leave
for officials serving outside the EU
Articles 8 and 10 of Annex X to the Staff Regulations
Under Article 10(1) of Annex X to the Staff Regulations,
an allowance for living conditions has to be fixed according to an
official's place of employment. The Appointing Authority must review that
allowance each year and, where appropriate, adjust it after obtaining the
opinion of the Staff Committee.
Under Article 8 of the same Annex, the Appointing Authority may, by way of
exception, grant officials rest leave on account of particularly difficult
living conditions at their place of employment.
The Commission has accordingly adopted two decisions:
-
a decision of 12 February 2004 setting living conditions
allowances for officials of the European Communities posted outside the EU
from 1 January 2004;
-
a decision of 25 March 2004 exceptionally granting rest
leave for officials of the European Communities serving outside the
European Union from 1 January 2004.
The annexed tables show the percentage living conditions allowances and
the resulting entitlement to rest leave for the postings and periods
specified.
