The United Nations Security Management System (UNSMS) applicability policy sets out the framework for UNSMS organizations to identify the categories of persons within their respective administrative structure and rules to whom UNSMS policies should apply. As a result, the UNDP Security Applicability Guideline provides guidance as to the persons UNDP should take into account when implementing UNSMS policies and from whom UNDP expects compliance to security policies, procedures and practices. The guideline also clarifies those persons under UNDP’s security accountability and responsibility. The recent revision of the UNSMS policy emphasizes the notion that contractual relationship underpinned applicability and stipulated the varying modalities through which contractual relationship may be established. The policy also notes that persons providing services to a UNSMS organization on less than a full-time basis were only considered UNSMS personnel when actually providing services to the UNSMS organization. These changes were contextualized in the UNDP Security Applicability Guideline in alignment with the UNSMS policy. EXPAND
