A vision for the future of the Ispra site

No comments
As a crucial step of the JRC strategy 2030, yesterday the College approved the new JRC organisational chart.
Today five trade unions - representing a large majority of Ispra staff - have gone one step further presenting their vision to strengthen the Ispra site and the JRC at the heart of the Commission.
In our letter sent to VP Georgieva we are asking for the full alignment of the functioning of the Ispra site to current and future practices and standards applied in the rest of the Commission.
One major change consists in an increased used of Offices. Moving the management of infrastructure & logistics from the JRC to OIB , as well as aligning the Ispra site with standard practices, would help to address the conclusions reported in the "Audit of JRC portfolio of buildings", and provide at the same time a better career perspective for involved contractual agents for whom indeterminate contracts may become possible. The concept of moving financial support to PMO or another new Office could also offer similar benefits.
Thanks to a DG-neutral approach to infrastructure management, we see future possibilities to host more DGs – in addition to the JRC – at the Ispra site. We consider this move as the most promising one to keep - and even increase - the overall size of the Ispra site, thus guaranteeing a long and prosperous future to it and its staff, with increased opportunities for recruitments and staff mobility.
