Other grades at European Space Agency
ESA employs no G-grade staff in the United States, so those cells are empty rather than filled from another country. Staff receive twelve months' salary a year — there is no thirteenth month — so the annual figure is simply twelve times the number shown.
The European Space Agency is one of the six Co-ordinated Organisations, which adjust pay by a shared method rather than a shared scale — so grade B2 here has no counterpart at another of the six. How Co-ordinated Organisation pay works.
This is not a UN common-system salary. The European Space Agency sets its own pay, so there is no post adjustment and no ICSC scale behind this grade — it cannot be compared with a P-4 or a GS-6 without accounting for the difference in basis.
