93By virtue of its duty to have regard for the welfare of its employees, the competent authority is none the less required, when assessing the interest of the service with a view to adopting a decision as to whether or not to renew the fixed-term contract of a member of the temporary staff, to take into consideration all the factors which may affect its decision, in particular the interests of the person concerned. However, the taking into consideration of the personal interests of the staff member concerned does not extend so far as to prevent the competent authority from not renewing a fixed-term contract despite the opposition of that staff member, if the interests of the service demand it (Klug v EMEA, F‑35/07, EU:F:2008:150, paragraph 79). Furthermore, in the case of an agency, regard must be had to the particular context in which EU agencies operate generally, characterised amongst other things by the fact that they have a limited number of staff available, and are subject to specific operation constraints (see ETF v Schuerings, T‑107/11 P, EU:T:2013:624, paragraphs 97 and 100).
