    Reminder

    Beneficiaries of the Pension Fund with CHIS as their main insurance scheme – Principal Members of the CHIS Scheme – are required to provide written information on the situation of their spouse * or any change in their spouse’s situation with regard to their professional activity and health insurance.

    CERN beneficiaries of the Pension Fund who do not have access to EDH (in the majority of cases) are required to use the paper version of the SHIPID.

    For further information, please consult the CERN CHIS page: Spouse Health Insurance & Professional Income Declaration – SHIPID.

    If you have any questions, the GAC-EPA representatives on the CHISBoard can help you.

  • Revision of the GAC-EPA Rules – Final stage – Validation and entry into force

    On 16 June 2023, five scrutineers, assisted by two Committee members, counted the votes cast by GAC-EPA members on the revision of the Group’s rules (minutes in French).

    The results, announced and validated by the Chairman of the meeting, Keith Potter, were as follows:

    225 votes cast (15.1% participation): 204 YES, 6 NO, 15 abstentions – 6 invalid votes.

    This is the final touch after work began in 2021 and a presentation of the proposed changes at the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on 28 March 2023.

    The new rules will come into force on 1 July 2023.

    The revised rules are available on the GAC-EPA website (link).

    We thank all the members who took part in the vote.
