Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Where the medical examination made before a member of the contract staff is engaged shows that he is suffering from sickness or invalidity, the AACC may, in so far as risks arising from such sickness or invalidity are concerned, decide to grant him guaranteed benefits in respect of invalidity or death only after a period of five years from the date of his entering the service of the Agency.
The contract staff member may appeal against this decision to the Invalidity Committee provided for in Article 76.
