Personnel Committee

Mandate:
WILPF is committed to dealing with personnel matters and relationships in all fairness and consistency, and in the strictest confidence to respect the privacy and integrity of the persons concerned.

Reporting to Congress and the IEC, working in close collaboration with the Officers and Staff, WILPF's Personnel Committee is mandated to ensure that necessary policies and procedures are developed, kept up to date, and appropriately administered.

These policies and procedures will include principles and processes for staff hiring, evaluation, termination, fair remuneration, conflict resolution and grievance procedures, training and development, all standard conditions and benefits such as health, safety, pension, vacations, bereavement leave and civic duty leaves in accordance with the law of the country(ies) and WILPF's guiding philosophy of justice and equity.

The commitment to formalize personnel policies, benefits, and fair remuneration implies a financial burden which WILPF will need to carry.  The Personnel Committee will work in collaboration with the SG, Officers, the SFC, and the International Fundraiser to ensure adequate resources.

The Personnel Committee is composed of five members nominated by Congress/IEC. Ideally, one member will be one of the Officers and two will be selected from within the IEC. A staff member or a person nominated by staff will also be part of the committee. The chair should preferably have relevant experience and expertise in workplace issues.
