For six years, EIPA’s European Centre for Judges and Lawyers (ECJL) in Luxembourg has hosted an annual conference on ‘European Union Civil Service Law’. These conferences have been very well received and prompted much enthusiasm from: Judges from the Court of Justice of the EU; Legal representatives of European institutions and agencies; University professors; Lawyers specialised in this field. 

In light of this, EIPA will organise a sixth annual conference. This will be an opportunity for you to explore recent developments, and in particular, those related to the reform of the EU’s Court of Justice and the transfer of competence of civil service law to the General Court.

What you gain
Firstly, you will become informed about recent developments in the case law of the General Court. You will look in more detail at specific issues regarding civil service litigation in the EU, including those issues that are currently on the agenda. Secondly, we will provide scope for a debate and a critical assessment of this case law among the key actors concerned, namely judges, lawyers and staff of the institutions.

Who will benefit most?

• Civil servants and officials of EU institutions and agencies who are responsible for issues relating to civil service law.
• Members of trade unions and professional organisations in the EU.
• Lawyers specialised in civil service litigation in the EU.
• National experts of public administration.
• Officials of international, non-EU organisations who are responsible for staff matters.

The detailed programme of this seminar will be available soon.
