5.   Selection procedure and conditions of employment

Under the terms of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the Management Board of the European Chemicals Agency will decide on the appointment of the members and their alternates on the basis of a list of qualified candidates proposed by the Commission. It is also foreseen in the Regulation that the Management Board may appoint additional members and their alternates on the recommendation of the Executive Director if this is necessary to ensure that the appeals can be processed at a satisfactory rate, following the same procedure.

The purpose of this call for expression of interest is to allow the Commission to establish a list of candidates for the position of legally qualified alternate/additional member to be proposed to the Management Board.

The alternate/additional members will be placed on a reserve list and called upon by the Board of Appeal to deal with cases in the absence of the full-time members or when necessary to ensure that the appeals can be processed at a satisfactory rate. The alternate/additional members are not appointed as members of the staff of the Agency. Thus, alternate/additional members are not required to suspend their current professional activities, but any such activities must be compatible with the requirements that the members of the Board of Appeal must be independent.

The term of office on the Board of Appeal, is 5 years. It may be prolonged once.

The alternate/additional members are remunerated by case on a daily fee basis. At present the remuneration is up to a maximum of EUR 400 for each actual day of work (7,5 hours) for the alternate/additional member who has been designated as a rapporteur for a given appeal by the Chairman, with a maximum amount of EUR 4 000 per case, or up to EUR 300 for each actual day of work for an alternate/additional member not designated as rapporteur, with a maximum amount of EUR 3 000 per case. In addition for both cases, reimbursement of travel costs and a daily allowance to cover board and accommodation will be paid (12).

The alternate/additional members of the Board of Appeal are required to declare any interests, which may conflict with their duty to the Board of Appeal, in compliance with Article 90(5) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 and in line with the Agency's policy on the management of potential conflicts of interest (13).

The reserve list for this position will be valid for a period of 5 years from the date of the establishment of the list.
