The Staff Association exists because different categories of CERN staff come together to defend their rights and material and moral interests, as a group of persons or as individuals. The Staff Association is also a source of proposals, gaining respect in its role as a negotiating partner the more staff members it has behind it.

Furthermore, certain advantages in the social and cultural areas and for everyday life are available to members. In short, making your life easier and providing up-to-date information is also one of the missions of the Staff Association.
