Review of CCAMLR Regulations for International Staff against the ICSCS and Comparator Organisations

In 2017 SCAF directed the Secretariat to undertake a review of the implications of recent changes to the UN Common System of Salaries, Allowances and Benefits published by the ICSC. The Secretariat undertook this review, extending it to a general review of the application of the ICSC scheme by CCAMLR and by other relevant international comparator organisations. CCAMLR is mostly in line with ICSC and comparator practice, but some changes to CCAMLR’s treatment of travel and appointment, health insurance and education allowances should be updated. These updates, if implemented as proposed in this paper, represent a cost saving for CCAMLR.
