I. INTRODUCTION
A consolidated schedule of post adjustment classifications and threshold figures used for
calculating rental subsidies (or deductions) is attached.
Names of countries and areas, which appear in English alphabetical order, are indexed in
French in the list attached to the schedule.
In cases where only one post adjustment classification is shown for a country, normally
for the capital city, that classification will be applicable for all duty stations within the country.
This schedule is effective 1 January 2017, unless otherwise indicated, and supersedes
any schedule previously published. It is available on the ICSC home page http://icsc.un.org
On trouvera ci-joint un barème mis à jour du classement des lieux d'affectation aux fins
d'ajustements des indemnités de poste et des seuils aux fins du calcul des allocations (ou
déductions) de logement.
Les noms des pays et localités figurent par ordre alphabétique anglais. On trouvera à
l'index annexé au barème les noms en français.
Dans les cas où une seule classe est indiquée pour le pays, en général pour la ville
capitale, cette classe s'applique à tous les lieux d'affectation dans le pays.
Sauf indication contraire, le barème ci-joint entre en vigueur le 1er janvier 2017 et
remplace tous les barèmes déjà parus. Il est disponible sur le site internet de la CFPI:

IV. Consolidation of post adjustment into base salary1
The General Assembly by resolution A/RES/71/264 approved a revised base/floor salary scale
for staff in the Professional and higher categories effective 1 January 2017. The revised scale
has been implemented in conjunction with a consolidation of 1.02 per cent of post adjustment
into net base salary on a no gain/no loss basis. This means that the net base salary is increased by
1.02 per cent and post adjustment indices and multipliers at all duty stations are reduced by the
same rate, effective the same date. Multipliers before and after consolidation of 1.02 per cent of
post adjustment into net base salary are provided in Annex II.
V. Gap Closure Measure
1. The Commission, at the request of the General Assembly, established the gap closure
measure, to be applied in situations where the implementation of a place-to-place survey results
in a significantly lower post adjustment index (PAI) than the existing pay index. Details of these
procedures are contained in the Commission’s report of the work of its thirty-fifth session
ICSC/35/R.17, para. 61 (d) and in the post adjustment circulars ICSC/CIRC/PAC/208 and
ICSC/CIRC/PAC/281 of 6 April 1992 and 4 May 1998, respectively.
2. In accordance with the above-mentioned gap closure measure, if the PAI resulting from a
place-to-place survey is less than the prevailing pay index by more than 5 per cent, then a revised
post adjustment multiplier (PAM) is implemented. The revised PAM is calculated by increasing
the updated survey PAI by 5 per cent. This revised PAM is applicable for all staff members in
the duty station. Existing staff members already at the duty station before the implementation
date of the survey results, receive the revised PAM plus a personal transition allowance (PTA).
3. The PTA is the difference between the new PAM and the existing PAM. The PTA is
adjusted every three months until it is phased out. During an adjustment month, the new PTA is
calculated by taking the difference between the new pay index and the sum of the PTA and new
pay index reduced by 5 per cent.
4. The table below shows the steps in the calculation of the PTA effective 1 January 2017
for Montenegro under the gap closure measure.

VI. Completion of Gap Closure Measure
5. The personal transition allowance (PTA) is eliminated as of 1 January 2017 for the duty
stations listed in Table 2. This completes the implementation of the gap closure measure
following the results of the most recent place-to-place survey conducted in the duty station.
Table 2: Completion of gap closure measure by duty station effective 1 January 2017
VII. Cost-of-living surveys
6. The results of cost-of-living surveys for duty stations listed in Table 3 are included in the
attached Consolidated Post Adjustment Circular.

VIII. Duty Stations with Personal Transitional Allowance (PTA)
7. The PTA is adjusted every three months until it is phased out. During an adjustment
month, the new PTA is calculated by reducing the pay index for existing staff by 5 per cent and
then subtracting the prevailing pay index. Table 4 is a summary of all PTAs in effect as of 1
January 2017. Also shown is the corresponding date of the next revision of the PTA.

IX. Calculation of New Rental Subsidy Thresholds
8. In accordance with the interoffice memorandum ICSC/CIRC/GEN/01/2016 issued on 4
November 2016 on the procedures for the calculation of rental subsidy upon implementation of
the unified base/floor salary scale effective 1 January 2017, a new set of rental subsidy
thresholds is published with reference to staff being in receipt of either the Spouse or Single
parent allowance and to staff not in receipt of any such allowances.
9. Annex III provides the set of rental subsidy thresholds according to the former distinction
between Dependent (Th_D) or Single (Th_S) status and the new set of rental subsidy thresholds
according to the current distinction between being in receipt of the Spouse or Single parent
allowance (Th_W) or not being in receipt of any such allowances (Th_W/O).
10. A more detailed explanation of the derivation of the current set of rental subsidy
thresholds, a flowchart describing their application in the determination of the net income for
purposes of rental subsidy, and some numerical examples, are provided in the above-referenced
interoffice memorandum.

ANNEX I
ADJUSTMENT OF THE BASE/FLOOR SALARY SCALE FOR STAFF IN THE
PROFESSIONAL AND HIGHER CATEGORIES
(EFFECTIVE 1 JANUARY 2017)
1. Pursuant to the General Assembly resolution A/RES/71/264, the base/floor salary scale
effective 1 January 2017 for staff in the Professional and higher categories is increased by 1.02
per cent at all grades and steps. This revised base/floor scale reflects a consolidation of 1.02 per
cent of post adjustment into net base salary and has been implemented effective 1 January 2017.
2. In accordance with the established practice, the consolidation of 1.02 per cent has been
implemented on a “no loss, no gain” basis. Consequently, the base/floor has been increased by
1.02 per cent and the post adjustment indices and multipliers applicable at all duty stations have
been reduced by the same percentage.
3. The base/floor salary scale is also used to calculate some of the end-of-service benefits
(repatriation grant, termination indemnity and death grant, as applicable). As of 1 January 2017
these benefits will be subject to an increase, as a result of the increase in the base/floor salary
scale.
