Pritožba v zvezi z delovnimi razmerji med institucijami in organi Skupnosti ter njihovimi uradniki ali drugimi uslužbenci se sme poslati varuhu človekovih pravic samo v primeru, da je zadevna oseba izkoristila že vse možnosti za vložitev vlog in pritožb, zlasti postopke iz člena 90(1) in (2) predpisov za uslužbence, ter če je rok za odgovore organa, na katerega so bile pritožbe naslovljene, že potekel.
