Recalls its resolution 71/263, in particular paragraph 10 thereof, in which it reaffirmed the need to respect the equality of the two working languages of the Secretariat, reaffirmed the use of additional working languages in specific duty stations as mandated, and in that regard requested the Secretary-General to ensure that job openings specified the need for either of the working languages of the Secretariat, unless the functions of the post required a specific working language; 51. Notes with satisfaction the willingness of the Secretariat to encourage staff members, in meetings with interpretation services, to use any of the six official languages of which they have a command; 52.

Welcomes the invitation of the Secretary-General to all the entities of the Secretariat to build an inventory of staff language skills, while making the best use of existing language databases, and encourages the Office of Human Resources Management of the Secretariat to support these efforts, in collaboration with the Coordinator for Multilingualism, including by taking into account language skills in the implementation of the mobility policy, as requested in its resolution 69/324; 54. Requests the Secretary-General to continue the efforts to ensure that training opportunities in the six official languages are equally available to all staff; 55. Recalls paragraph 11 of its resolution 71/263, in which it acknowledged that the interaction of the United Nations with the local population in the field was essential and that language skills constituted an important element of the selection and training processes and therefore affirmed that a good command of the official language(s) spoken in the country of residence should be taken into account as an additional asset during those processes; 56. Also recalls its resolution 68/265 of 9 April 2014 on the mobility framework, and invites the Secretary-General to take into account applicable language skills while ensuring full compliance with Article 101 of the Charter of the United Nations; 8/10
