The government has agreed with the trade unions on a plan to reduce temporary employment in the public sector, which envisages a call for structural positions occupied by temporary staff for more than three years and a 20-day compensation for those who do not pass the competition.
The aim of the reform is to bring the temporary employment rate below 8%, for which a stabilisation process is envisaged that will affect more than 300,000 structural positions occupied by temporary staff and which must be fixed before 31 December 2024 "as a non-extendable deadline".
Another key feature of the plan is that temporary staff who do not manage to take up the post they are occupying will be compensated with 20 days' pay per year worked, with a maximum of 12 months' pay, whether they are temporary civil servants or temporary staff.
For the awarding of these posts, the principles of equality, merit, capacity, publicity and free competition will be respected, by means of a competitive examination. The competition phase will be assessed at 40 % and experience will be taken into account in the majority of cases.
Those who do not pass the selection process, even if they leave with compensation, may be included in specific employment exchanges for interim staff or in existing exchanges. Read more
