Former Vice-President of DG1 of the #EPO threatened me with an investigation under #EPO's Circular 342 (against human rights and the principle of non-retroactivity) which I had opposed before as a staff representative. pic.twitter.com/i9XPYmKnUu

I was clearly entitled to an employment medical examination under Article 90(2) Service Regulations. #EPO #occupational #disease
