Europe s Economic War of Attrition

As noted in my previous report (S 2005 506), MONUC has a very high rate of attrition and difficulties in recruiting qualified staff.

(a) Full use of attrition in 1996 1997

This situation has been exacerbated by the very high rate of attrition in MONUC, due to the particularly difficult conditions of service in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The Mission had experienced high attrition rates and difficulties in attracting staff, and the recruitment of staff on temporary contracts, as recommended by the Advisory Committee, would only exacerbate that situation.

During the same period, a further 344 staff had been separated from service through normal attrition.

Or that He will not visit them with attrition? Indeed your Lord is most kind and merciful.

114. Turnover rates for all causes of attrition come much closer to standard rates (6 per cent).

In addition, the projected staffing requirements do not take into account attrition due to reasons other than retirement.

Currently, there were fewer officers than in 1987 owing to attrition over the years of zero growth and budget reductions.

Other delegations said that UNICEF was well placed to address these threats, but more attention should be paid to national capacity building and to the quality of education, especially in view of the high attrition rate of teachers due to HIV AIDS.

The human resources task force would address both the issue of attrition and of the diamond shaped configuration of the staff.

In October 1973, Syria and Egypt waged war for recovery of the occupied territories from Israel, which was followed by the eight year war of attrition.

Some say that, just as Egypt s war of attrition eventually gave way to a full scale war and then a peace treaty, Europe needs a major crisis to move forward. But this is a dangerous notion, one that entails not just massive risks, but also unacceptably high interim human costs.

Like Egypt s war of attrition, the eurozone s underlying economic, financial, and social ferment continues. If governments continue to stumble from one patchwork remedy to another a probability that remains uncomfortably high the delay in implementing a comprehensive solution will eventually overwhelm the defenses that the ECB has so courageously put in place.

16. The Committee was informed that the phasing out plan had been prepared on the basis of attrition of existing tours of duty of the individuals in question.

It should be noted that the Greek Cypriot administration still wages a war of attrition against Northern Cyprus, subjecting the Turkish Cypriots to an all embracing inhuman embargo.

The Provisional Electoral Council, whose membership has been decimated by resignations and attrition and whose credibility was eroded by constant criticism, financial scandal and internal differences, is virtually moribund.

Taking into account factors such as attrition, this is expected to result in over 790 construction and related jobs on these projects Aboriginal apprenticeship community based training began in September 2002.

The overall impact of this economic attrition is erosion of the Palestinian production capacity and degradation of people's ability to feed themselves, and therefore increased dependence on imports, especially from Israel.

If a company is found to treat its employees poorly or behave unethically, even if regulators don't step in, it can face costly consequences from consumer boycotts, employee attrition and lawsuits, Quinlan said.

It thus appears to the Advisory Committee that the required vacancy rate can be achieved through such methods as attrition, enforcement of the retirement age, freeze on recruitment and lateral deployment of staff.

With the recent endorsement of the completion strategy by the Security Council, such attrition may become even more critical as the Tribunals approach the 2007 2008 time frame for the completion of their work.

In the period immediately following the announcement in 2002 of the completion strategy, both staff and management decided that any reduction of posts and staff should be undertaken in the first instance through attrition.

As it is recorded in the reports of the Secretary General to the Security Council at the time, a merciless war of attrition was waged by the Greek Cypriot administration against the Turkish Cypriot people.

Recovery and reconstruction have to proceed under adverse conditions of conflict, economic attrition, mobility restrictions and lack of sovereignty, against a background of a war torn economy distorted by years of occupation and dependence on a much stronger economy.

The war of attrition followed the June 1967 war, in which Egypt to the immense surprise of most of its citizens and the outside world was soundly defeated. Its air force was crippled and its army was virtually overrun, with Israel capturing the entire Sinai Peninsula.

15. While it is difficult at this stage to forecast their exact impact on staffing levels, it is expected that reductions in staffing requirements in those departments where savings are to be achieved could be met through a combination of redeployment and natural attrition, including retirement.
