Thank you for the contributions!
Your comments on the first draft of the “Towards a new
normal” orientation document will be reviewed together with those the EPO’s staff members and
considered for integration into the paper.
The Office intends to present a final draft of the
orientation document to the Administrative Council in June 2021, with a view to gradually implementing any
new policies after that.
More detailed proposals will follow where required,
which take careful consideration of our obligations to our staff and our member states, and any
related legal considerations.
