Also available in English

This body of law governs the relationship between international organisations and their employees, and is derived from the treaties establishing international organisations, their internal legislation and the contracts of employment between the organisations and their staff. Its origins lie in the legal status of international organisations and the immunity enjoyed by international organisations from the legal process of the States in which they are based or in which they carry out their activities.
