UNITED NATIONS CONSIDERATIONS

According to article 101, paragraph 3, of the Charter of the United Nations, the
paramount consideration in the employment of the staff is the necessity of

have committed violations of international human rights law, violations of
international humanitarian law, sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, or sexual
harassment, or if there are reasonable grounds to believe that they have been
involved in the commission of any of these acts. The term “sexual exploitation”
means any actual or attempted abuse of a position of vulnerability, differential
power, or trust, for sexual purposes, including, but not limited to, profiting
monetarily, socially or politically from the sexual exploitation of another. The
term “sexual abuse” means the actual or threatened physical intrusion of a
sexual nature, whether by force or under unequal or coercive conditions. The
term “sexual harassment” means any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that
might reasonably be expected or be perceived to cause offence or humiliation,
when such conduct interferes with work, is made a condition of employment or
creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment, and when the
gravity of the conduct warrants the termination of the perpetrator’s working
relationship. Candidates who have committed crimes other than minor traffic
offences may not be considered for employment. Due regard will be paid to the
importance of recruiting the staff on as wide a geographical basis as possible.
The United Nations places no restrictions on the eligibility of men and women to

and subsidiary organs. The United Nations Secretariat is a non-smoking
