EU Civil Service Law

This practical commentary interprets EU Staff Regulations on the basis of a rich set of judgments handed down by the EU courts over more than 70 years, complemented by insightful case studies on recent landmark decisions. In addition to presenting key aspects of employment law applicable to officials and other agents of the EU institutions, the book considers future legal developments. Several important areas of Union law meet in the practice of civil service matters: fundamental rights; general Union law principles; social and labour law; family and tax law; and procedural, administrative, institutional or constitutional law. Mader explores this intersection across chapters covering civil service law context, its legal framework and principles; procedural aspects; and collective EU civil service law. The result is an invaluable English-language commentary by one of the field's leading figures, written for colleagues working across EU law, public international law, civil service or public sector law.
