Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Acknowledges the Centre’s efforts to adopt a more agile work culture, including more orientation towards project management; notes that the Centre has used four interim workers provided by a temporary work agency to compensate for the reduction of its statutory staff; deplores that the relevant framework contract did not explicitly require the full respect of Union law and relevant national law and that the temporary workers were paid significantly less than the statutory staff; takes note that in its reply, the Centre states that the applicable Union and Portuguese law have been respected and that the lower salary was due to a lower level of responsibilities; welcomes the Centre’s intention to nevertheless reassess its policy for the use of temporary workers to further rationalise the latter in line with its operating needs and the relevant legal framework; urges the Centre to employ as much as possible permanent staff;
