INTRODUCTION 

This report fulfils the obligation arising from Article 79(3) of the Conditions of Employment 
of  Other  Servants  of  the  European  Union  (CEOS),  which  states  that  ‘the  Commission  shall 
provide a yearly report on the use of contract staff including numbers of staff, level and type 
of posts, geographical balance and budgetary resources per function group’. The report offers 
an extremely detailed picture of contract staff in service on 31 December 2010, whereas the 
budgetary data sent every year to the Council's Budget Committee - Working Paper, part II - 
along  with  each  Commission  statement  of  estimates  include  a  table  showing  contract  staff 
numbers  at  the  time  when  the  draft  budget  is  presented  (including  contract  staff  recruited 
using  assigned  revenue),  i.e.  the  table  as  at  1 April  of  year  N-1  (where  N  is  the  year  of  the 
draft  budget),  budgetary  implementation  in  year  N-2  and  requests  for  appropriations  with 
estimates of full-time equivalents for year N. 

This explains any differences in contract staff numbers between the two reports. 

The  report  contains  data  for  all  the  EU  Institutions  and  Agencies  as  defined  in  the  Staff 
Regulations. The data for the Commission are more detailed and include staff financed from 
operational and research lines, plus staff working in offices, delegations, representations and 
the JRC.  

Article  80  of  the  CEOS  establishes  a  link  between  the  function  group  and  the  duties  that 
contract staff can perform: 

Functio
n group

the supervision of officials or temporary staff

performed under the supervision of officials or temporary staff

performed under the supervision of officials or temporary staff 

1 to 3  Manual  and  administrative  support  service  tasks,  performed  under  the  supervision 

of officials or temporary staff 

The  category  of  contract  staff  was  created  in  2004.  Contract  staff  have  made  a  useful 
contribution to the work of the Institutions ever since by carrying out administrative support 
activities for a lower cost and by bringing in skills which are not always available within the 
Institution.  It  is  worth  noting  too  that,  since  the  D  category  was  scrapped,  no  competitions 
have been organised to recruit officials for work as messengers (except in the Parliament) or 
drivers, or for any other typical FG I duties. Only FG I contract staff have been recruited for 
these duties since 2004 and can apply for indefinite contracts subject to certain conditions set 
out in the CEOS and in the general implementing provisions for contract staff.

TREND IN CONTRACT STAFF NUMBERS IN THE COMMISSION SINCE 2004 

At the end of 2010, the total number of contract staff in all Institutions and Agencies came to 
almost 9 000 (8 863), with the Commission employing approximately two thirds of these. The 
breakdown between the Institutions and Agencies is examined further below.  

The trend within the Commission since 2004 is as follows:

4.9% 

-0.6% 

The rise in contract staff numbers before they stabilised at around 6 000 is due in part to the 
gradual  replacement  of  auxiliary  staff  (who  numbered  almost  3 000  in  2003)  by  auxiliary 
contract staff (Article 3b of the CEOS), but also to the replacement of the former Category D 
by contract staff (Article 3a of the CEOS) and to the conversion of permanent official posts 
into  credits  for  contract  staff  in  the  Offices.  Contract  staff  were  also  taken  on  as  temporary 
replacements for permanent staff, as provided for in Article 3b of the CEOS.  

Contract staff numbers grew each year up to 2009 before dipping slightly in 2010. However, 
this dip should not be regarded as the start of a permanent decline. It was mostly due to the 
wait  for  the  results  of  the  new  CAST  2010  selection  tests  and  the  delay  in  organising  the 
profile tests for the competition. Once the results of the tests are known, the selection can be 
finalised  in  accordance  with  the  general  implementing  provisions  and  the  successful 
candidates recruited as 3a contract staff.  

This  is  supported  by  the  table  below  which  shows  the  number  of  new  contracts  signed  per 
year.

*  This  figure  does  not  include  contract  staff  who  changed  function  group  in  the  course  of  the  year.  If  they  are  included,  the  number  of 
contracts managed by the Commission in 2010 is 1176.

DISTRIBUTION  OF  COMMISSION  CONTRACT  STAFF  BY  GENDER  AND  FUNCTION 
GROUP 

Bearing  in  mind  when  we  talk  about  the  contract  staff  category  that  it  is  a  question  of 
appropriations,  not  posts,  the  number  of  contract  staff  breaks  down  into  the  four  categories 
indicated in the CEOS as shown below. By way of example, since CAST 2010 there has been 
a trend in a number of departments recently to reclassify their FG II contract staff in FG III 
(which explains why there were fewer new contract staff in 2010). Given a constant budget 
allocation, this process should reduce the total number of contract staff without reducing the 
cost.

On 31 December 2010, 5 979 contract staff were serving in the Commission. The commonest 
function group is FG II. Persons in this group carry out secretarial duties or the like, including

childcare duties. Next are contract staff in FG IV and FG III. Contract staff in FG I account 
for only 15.26% of the total. 

If we compare the breakdown by gender with last year’s figures, we see that there are more 
women than men in FG IV (50.46%) for the first time. The breakdown in the other function 
groups is comparable to 2009, i.e. we see a higher number of women in FG II (84.74%) and 
FG III (59.25%), while men predominate in FG I (61.82%). Again, this reflects the traditional 
breakdown by type of duties performed: as mentioned above, FG IIs are mainly secretaries or 
childcare  workers  while  the  majority  of  FG Is  work  as  messengers.  Overall,  the  balance 
between men and women is stable by comparison with last year, with women accounting for 
62.72% of all contract staff (as against 62.01% in 2009). 

4. 

BREAKDOWN OF COMMISSION CONTRACT STAFF BY NATIONALITY

3 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  most  of  the  27  nationalities  of  contract  staff  followed  a  similar 
growth pattern from 2005 to 2010 with the notable exception of Bulgarians, Romanians and 
Hungarians.  The  number  of  staff  of  these  nationalities  rose  more  sharply.  The  numbers  of 
Irish, Luxembourger and Maltese staff, on the other hand, fell (with a drop of more than 50% 
in  the  case  of  Luxembourgers).  The  figures  for  UK  nationals  remained  stable,  with  no 
significant increase since 2005. 

Information  about  the  organisation  of  contract  staff  selection  tests  needs  to  be  better 
distributed to allow the less well represented Member States to increase the number of their 
applicants for these positions.

In  2010  the  most  represented  nationalities  among  the  5 979  contract  staff  were,  in  order, 
Belgians,  Italians,  French,  Spanish  and  Germans,  followed  by  Romanians  and  Poles.  The 
order has been the same for the first five nationalities since 2005. Romania and Poland have 
been in 6th and 7th place since 2007.

The main reason for this is the location of the European Institutions' head offices. Successful 
candidates are more likely to accept a limited-term posting if they are already resident at the 
place where the Institution offers them a job. It should be borne in mind that most recruitment 
is to contract staff 3b level which involves an initial contract for one year, followed by a two-
year  extension,  making  a  maximum  of  three  years.  Consequently,  it  is  hard  for  successful 
candidates sometimes to leave their country of origin (especially if they have a family) and to 
move  to  the  Institution’s  headquarters  for  a  limited  duration.  The  same  trend  linked  to  the 
place  of  residence  is  apparent  from  the  table  showing  the  breakdown  by  nationality  in  the 
other Institutions and Agencies. 

The other reason, of course, is the requirement to pass a CAST selection test in order to be 
eligible  for  recruitment  as  contract  staff.  A  breakdown  by  nationality  is  given  below,  for 
example, for CAST 27 and CAST 2010 (these figures have already been sent as part of the 
additional data requested for 2009). We can see that the same nationalities again account for 
the  majority  of  applicants  and  successful  candidates.  But  let  us  not  forget  that  the  results 
given here for CAST 2010 relate to the first part of the tests only and do not take account of 
the profile tests, the results of which are still not out. This explains why the pass rate seems 
higher for CAST 2010 than for CAST 27. 

It should be stressed, however, that there is no minimum quota per nationality. Recruitment is 
on the basis of the required profile and the applicants' abilities and language knowledge. To 
our  knowledge,  no  appeals  have  been  lodged  on  grounds  of  discrimination  based  on  the 
nationality of a successful candidate.

The  table  below  allows  the  breakdown  by  function  group  and  nationality  to  be  analysed. 
Additional tables showing the breakdown by gender are annexed. It should be noted that, as 
was the case for permanent officials too, the increase in the number of women at FG IV level 
is  largely  due  to  the  recruitment  of  contract  staff  who  are  nationals  of  Member  States  that 
have joined since 2004.

BREAKDOWN OF COMMISSION CONTRACT STAFF BY DEPARTMENT 

In  the  following  section  the  data  on  contract  staff  have  been  ranked  by  Directorate-General 
(DG). DGs and services are given a budget for recruiting contract staff rather than posts, thus 
making  it  very  difficult  to  draw  general  conclusions  as  each  draws  up  its  own  policy  for 
meeting its own specific needs. However, our contacts with departments lead us to conclude 
that  the  appropriations  allocated  to  the  policy  for  replacing  absent  staff  allow  continuity  of 
service  to  be  maintained  and  that  the  situation  would  not  be  as  satisfactory  without  those 
temporary replacements. 

We  should  stress  that,  since  1 January  2011,  the  European  External  Action  Service  (EEAS) 
has taken over most of the contract staff working for DG RELEX and the Delegations. This 
report  deals  with  the  statistics  for  2010  and  is  not  therefore  affected  by  this  institutional 
change.  The  next  report  will,  however,  show  significant  differences  in  the  distribution  of 
contract staff by DG following the creation of this new Institution.

DISTRIBUTION OF CONTRACT STAFF IN THE OTHER INSTITUTIONS AND AGENCIES

10 

Figures for the numbers of contract staff in the Agencies and other Institutions are included in 
the  annexes  broken  down  by  gender  and  function  group  (Annex  1)  and  by  nationality 
(Annex 2). 

The  data  for  the  Agencies  for  2009  were  provided  in  a  separate  document.  This  report 
contains the data for 2010 therefore allowing comparisons and making it possible to identify 
potentially significant trends. 

The  data  for  contract  staff  in  the  other  Institutions  are  not  available  in  the  same  way  in 
previous years’ reports and it is consequently not possible for the moment to base analyses on 
them  or  to  draw  worthwhile  conclusions.  This  is  the  result  of  a  request  for  more 
comprehensive  data  to  be  available,  made  by  the  Member  States  when  the  2009  report  was 
submitted. 

These tables reveal the same trends in terms of the breakdown by function group and gender. 
There  are  no  major  differences  in  the  breakdown  by  nationality  either,  other  than  the 
observation  already  made  above  that  the  geographical  location  of  the  Agency  or  Institution 
seems to have an effect on the extent to which each nationality is represented.
