5.   Proċedura tal-għażla u kundizzjonijiet tal-impjieg

Skont it-termini ta' Regolament (KE) Nru 1907/2006, il-Bord tal-Maniġment jiddeċiedi dwar il-ħatra tal-President u l-alternant tiegħu/tagħha fuq il-bażi ta' lista ta' kandidati kwalifikati proposti mill-Kummissjoni. L-għan ta' din is-sejħa għal espressjoni ta' interess huwa biex jippermetti lill-Kummissjoni tistabbilixxi lista ta' kandidati biex tipproponiha lill-Bord tal-Maniġment għall-kariga ta' Chairman alternanti.

Iċ-Chairman alternant ma jinħatarx bħala membru tal-persunal temporanju, imma jista' jissejjaħ mill-Bord tal-Appell biex jittratta l-każi biss fl-assenza taċ-Chairman. Għaldaqstant, l-alternant mhuwiex mitlub li jissospendi l-attivitajiet professjonali li jkollu/ha, imma dawn l-attivitajiet għandhom ikunu kompatibbli mar-rekwiżit li l-Membri tal-Bord tal-Appell iridu jkunu indipendenti, u li min attwalment ikun qed jimpjega ma jsibx oġġezzjoni għall-kariga ta' Chairman alternanti. Ir-remunerazzjoni tal-alternant tiddependi fuq il-kwalifiki u l-esperjenza tal-kandidat li jintgħażel. Bħalissa r-remunerazzjoni hija sa Eur 500 għal kull ġurnata ta' xogħol effettiva, b'ammont massimu ta' Eur 5 000 kull każ, biż-żieda tar-rifużjoni tal-ispejjeż tal-ivvjaġġar u sussidju għal kuljum li jkopri l-ikel u l-akkomodazzjoni.

Iċ-Chairman jintalab jiddikjara kwalunkwe interess, li jista' jkun f'kunflitt mad-dmirijiet tiegħu fuq il-Bord tal-Appell b'konformità mal-Artikolu 90 (5) u (6) tar-Regolament (KE) Nru 1907/2006.

Il-listi ta' riżerva għal dawk il-pożizzjonijiet tkun valida għal perjodu ta' 5 snin mid-data tad-deċiżjoni tal-Bord tal-Ġestjoni dwar il-ħatra tal-membri.

Il-post tal-impjieg huwa fl-Aġenzija Ewropea għas-Sustanzi Kimiċi f'Ħelsinki.

Kopji ċċertifikati tal-lawrji/diplomi, referenzi, provi ta' esperjenza, eċċ m'għandhomx jintbagħtu f'dan il-punt iżda għandhom jintbagħtu fi stadju aktar tard tal-proċedura jekk mitluba.
