Registration Procedures New regulations came into force 1.1.2013

A revision of the contract handling procedures had the aim to

Adapt the legal framework and the procedures to common employment situations in the scientific community

Streamline and facilitate the registration procedures Increase the possible maximum contract length Harmonize registration procedures and forms across CERN

The transition from the previous to the new procedures is successfully completed

The Users’ Office extended more than 1000 contracts at the turn over of the year and many new contracts

The Improvements of the new procedures are already apparent

This insurance project has the aim of fulfilling the needs of the Users at CERN for financial cover of

emergency health problems

health problems due to private and work accidents

It should be valid in Switzerland and France

This insurance is considered subsidiary to an existing base insurance

Cost estimate: 1.55 Chf /day/person

Status The offer presented in the last ACCU meeting

was clarified

An additional offer was requested: the option to subscribe for a complete insurance with the same insurances company making use of the same subscription mechanisms

Possible implementation models are under study, considering that

The offer must be cost effective The insurer refrains from administrating the

contract affiliation and fee payments and requests a single point of contact

CERN is not the employer nor the insurer The institutes need to participate as actors in

the project
