Common use of General Rights and Obligations Clause in Contracts

General Rights and Obligations. The terms and conditions of the IPSA differ from the terms and conditions applicable to UNDP staff members appointed under the UN Staff Regulations and Rules. IPSA Holders are excluded from participation in the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund and After-Service Health Insurance. Further, IPSA Holders shall not be entitled to any additional benefit, payment, subsidy, compensation or entitlement, except those expressly stated in the IPSA. IPSA Holders may neither seek nor accept any instructions in connection with UNDP from any authority external to UNDP. Should any authority external to UNDP seek to impose any instructions on IPSA Holders in connection with UNDP, they must promptly notify UNDP and provide all reasonable assistance required by UNDP to address this matter. An IPSA Holder must not take any action that may adversely affect the interests of UNDP and must perform their obligations under the IPSA with the fullest regard to the interests of UNDP. During the period of service with UNDP, an IPSA Holder must refrain from any conduct that would reflect adversely on UNDP or the rest of the UN system (or both), and must not engage in any activity that is incompatible with their performance of services for UNDP under the IPSA. During the term of the IPSA and even after the expiration or termination of an IPSA, IPSA Holders must assist UNDP in any disputes with third parties, and cooperate with audits conducted by the Office of Audit and Investigations or the Board of Auditors and/or investigations relating to matters on which the IPSA Holders worked or have knowledge. Such assistance may include providing UNDP or its lawyers (or both) with information regarding an IPSA Holder’s service under the IPSA, and serving as a witness in arbitration, conciliation, mediation and/or similar proceedings. Whether or not UNDP exercises such an option, an IPSA Holder may not voluntarily or at the request of a third party, without being compelled to do so by relevant authorities, provide any assistance (other than serving, subject to the provisions of the IPSA regarding confidentiality, as an unremunerated fact witness) to the other party or parties to the dispute without the prior written consent of, or in the case of a request of relevant authorities, without notifying, UNDP.
