Salary Scales for staff in the General Service & Related Categories :

Pursuant to article 11 (a) of its statute, ICSC establishes and reviews both headquarters methodology and non-headquarters methodology for surveys of best prevailing conditions of employment of General Service and other related categories.

While it is also responsible for conducting surveys at headquarters locations, i.e. Geneva, Madrid, Montreal, London, New York, Paris, Rome and Vienna, neither the Commission nor its secretariat are actively involved in any operational aspects of non-headquarters surveys, the overall responsibility for which is assigned to the organizations. The United Nations conducts the overwhelming majority of non-headquarters salary surveys and is also responsible for the promulgation of all local salary scales.
