(2) OJ No L 79, 21. 3. 1987, p. 1.

In order to allow retraining periods of limited duration as part of the mobility procedure provided for in Article 2, the appointing authority may decide to assign an official serving outside the Community to a post in a Member State of the European Communities; such assignments, which shall not be preceded by a vacancy notice, may not be for more than four years. By way of derogation from the first subparagraph of Article 1, the appointing authority may decide, on the basis of general implementing provisions, that the official shall remain subject to certain provisions of this Annex for the duration of this temporary assignment, excluding Articles 5, 10 and 12 thereof.
CHAPTER 2
OBLIGATIONS
An official shall carry out his duties at the place to which he is assigned on recruitment or on transfer in the interests of the service following the mobility procedure.
If the institution provides the official with accommodation which corresponds to the composition of his dependent family, he shall be required to reside in it.
CHAPTER 3
WORKING CONDITIONS
An official shall, per calendar year, be entitled to annual leave of five calendar days for each month of service.
In the year in which an official takes up or ceases to perform his duties in a third country, he shall be entitled to five calendar days leave for each complete month of service, to five calendar days for an incomplete month consisting of more than 15 days and to two and a half calendar days for an incomplete month of 15 days or less.
Where an official, for reasons other than the requirements of the service, has not used up his annual leave before the end of the current calendar year, the amount of leave which may be carried over to the following year shall not exceed 20 calendar days.
By way of exception, the appointing authority may, by special reasoned decision, grant an official rest leave on account of particularly difficult living conditions at his place of employment. For each such place, the appointing authority shall determine the town(s) where rest leave may be taken.
1. Annual leave may be taken all at once or in several periods, according to what the official desires and taking account of the requirements of the service. It must, however, include at least one period of 20 consecutive calendar days.
2. The rest leave referred to in Article 8 may not exceed a period of 15 calendar days for each year of service. It may not be combined with annual leave, nor may it be carried over from one year to the next.
The period of rest leave shall be extended by the addition of travelling time calculated in accordance with Article 7 of Annex V to the Staff Regulations.
CHAPTER 4
EMOLUMENTS AND SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS
Section 1
EMOLUMENTS AND FAMILY ALLOWANCES
1. An allowance for living conditions shall be fixed, according to the official's place of employment, as a percentage of a reference amount. This reference amount shall comprise the total basic salary, plus the expatriation allowance, household allowance and dependent child allowance, less the compulsory deductions referred to in the Staff Regulations or in the regulations adopted to implement them.
Where an official is employed in a country in which living conditions can be deemed equivalent to those normally obtaining in the Community, no such allowance shall be payable.
In the case of other places of employment, the allowance for living conditions shall be fixed as follows.
The parameters taken into account for fixing the allowance for living conditions shall be the following:
- health and hospital environment,
- security,
- climate,
to which three parameters shall be applied a weighting of 1:
- degree of isolation,
- other local conditions,
to which two parameters shall be applied a weighting of 0,5.
Each parameter shall have the following value:
0: where conditions are normal but not equivalent to those normally obtaining in the Community,
2: where conditions are difficult compared with those normally obtaining in the Community,
4: where conditions are very difficult compared with those normally obtaining in the Community. The allowance shall be fixed as a percentage of the reference amount referred to in the first subparagraph, in accordance with the following scale:
- 10 % where the value equals 0,
- 15 % where the value is greater than 0 but not greater than 2,
- 20 % where the value is greater than 2 but not greater than 5,
- 25 % where the value is greater than 5 but not greater than 8,
- 35 % where the value is greater than 8.
The allowance for living conditions fixed for each place of employment shall be reviewed and, where appropriate, adjusted each year by the appointing authority after the opinion of the Staff Committee has been obtained.
2. If living conditions at the place of employment are such as to put the official at personal risk, a temporary additional allowance shall be paid to him by special reasoned decision of the appointing authority. This allowance shall be fixed as a percentage of the reference amount referred to in the first subparagraph of paragraph 1:
- at 5 % where the authority advises its staff not to settle their families in the place of employment,
- at 10 % where the authority decides to reduce temporarily the number of staff serving in the place of employment.
Remuneration, as also the allowances referred to in Article 10, shall be paid in Belgian francs in Belgium. They shall be subject to the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials employed in Belgium.
At the request of the official, the appointing authority may decide to pay all or part of his remuneration in the currency of the country of employment. In that event, it shall be subject to the weighting for the place of employment and shall be converted on the basis of the corresponding exchange rate.
In duly substantiated exceptional cases, the appointing authority may make all or part of this payment in a currency other than that of the country of employment in such a way as to maintain purchasing power.
In order to ensure as far as possible that officials, enjoy equivalent purchasing power irrespective of their place of employment, the Council shall determine the weighting referred to in Article 12 every six months. The Council shall, by the written procedure within one month, act on a proposal from the Commission by the qualified majority provided for in the first eventuality set out in the second subparagraph of Article 148 (2) of the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community and of Article 118 of the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community. Should a Member State request formal examination of the Commission proposal, the Council shall act within two months.
Where however, in the case of a given country, the variation in the cost of living measured on the basis of the weighting and the corresponding exchange rate is found to have exceeded 5 % since the last adjustment, the Commission shall decide on interim measures for adjusting the weighting and shall inform the Council thereof as soon as possible.
The Commission shall submit an annual report to the Council on the application of this Annex and in particular on the fixing of the rate of the allowance for living conditions as provided for in Article 10.
On the conditions laid down by the appointing authority, the official shall receive an education allowance to cover the actual education costs incurred, payment of the allowance being made on the production of supporting documents. Except in cases deemed exceptional by the appointing authroity, this allowance shall not exceed three times the doubled maximum education allowance.
Reimbursements due to officials shall be paid in either Belgian francs or the currency of the country of employment, on the basis of a reasoned request from the official.
Officials may opt to have installation or resettlement allowances paid in either Belgian francs or the currency of the place of installation or resettlement; in the latter case, they shall be subject to the weighting fixed for the place in question and converted at the corresponding exchange rate.
