43In that context, it should be noted that, as is apparent from the fourth paragraph of Article 72(1) of the Staff Regulations, part of the contribution required to meet sickness insurance cover is to be charged to the official, without the amount charged exceeding 2% of his or her basic salary. Article 73(1) of the Staff Regulations states that officials are, from the date of their entry into the service, insured against the risk of occupational disease or accidents and that they are to contribute to the cost of insuring against non-occupational risks up to 0.1% of their basic salary. Article 83(2) of the Staff Regulations also provides that officials are to contribute one third of the cost of the pension scheme, with that contribution being a given percentage of their basic salary.
