The Generalitat Valenciana has announced an extraordinary Public Employment Offer of 3,833 places, of which 3,094 are for stabilization and 739 for internal promotion. Of the first, 2,520 will be by contest (without exam) and 574 by contest-opposition. In addition, a percentage is reserved for functional diversity, 131 places, according to data from the Ministry of Justice, Interior and Public Administrations.
This is how the Ministry has transferred it to the unions in the Public Function Sectoral Table held last Thursday, where the decree to reduce temporary work has been reported, which has to be published before June 1, as established by law 20/ 2021, of December 28, on urgent measures to reduce temporary employment in public employment.
According to sources consulted, CCOO PV has expressed its support for the decree at the table, in which CSIF, Intersindical and UGT Serveis Públics PV are also represented, which has expressed its rejection and has announced that it is studying mobilizations and a possible appeal to the courts.
With this, the Generalitat activates the temporary employment stabilization process with the ultimate goal of bringing the structural temporary employment rate below 8 percent. With the extraordinary OEP of 2022 (3,094 positions) and the stabilization processes that are already underway (5,490 positions), 8,584 positions will be stabilized and the objective set by the state law of reducing temporary employment in this percentage will be met.
Currently, the Valencian Civil Service has 9,667 interims, of which 8,310 are in structural positions. The Valencian General Administration has, right now, a staff made up of 19,072 people between career civil servants, interim and labor personnel.
Sources from this department have indicated that this call represents a “great organizational challenge” on the part of the Valencian Administration, while at the same time committing to the “stabilization” of public employment, which it assures that it will do “from dialogue with social agents” .
From the Federation of Services to the Citizenship of CCOO PV, its support for the OEP has been shown in a statement and that the Generalitat offers, from 2017 and until this last offer, a total of 9,323 places to reduce temporary employment.
As the union has pointed out, “the different agreements for the stabilization and reduction of temporary employment in the public sector below 8%, reached since 2017 at the state level, have been transferred and applied in the Administration of the Generalitat Valenciana through the corresponding ones since that year.
Likewise, it has shown its support for the last OEP of 3,833 places “because it includes practically all the places that can be called with the criteria provided for in Law 20/202 on urgent measures to reduce temporary employment in the public sector, guaranteeing, likewise, the right to internal promotion».
According to the union, with the SPOs of the years 2017, 2018 and 2019, whose development and execution is being completed, 4,902 places were offered, 2,152 of them for the internal promotion shift and 2,750 for the free access shift; with the 2022 OEP, 588 have been called, while those of 2020 and 2021 offered a total of 2,041 places, but since in them “the specific calls for each category or body had not yet been published, and based on what provided for in the aforementioned Law 20/2021”, are annulled.
This number is added to the rest of the positions that meet the criteria provided for in that regulation in order, “for the last time and in an extraordinary manner, to approve a new OEP in which the positions occupied on an interim basis since before January 1, 2016 will be the merit contest may be applied as a selective system. And in which they are occupied on an interim basis, for at least three years prior to 12/31/2020, by the competition-opposition system.
However, UGT Seveis Públics, the majority union at the table, does not endorse the Consell decree and has announced that it is studying mobilizations and a possible appeal in court since it considers that the number of places provided for the extraordinary Public OEP “is very insufficient and does not include the scale of the processes».
The union has lamented in a statement the “lack of agreement” and considers it a “lost opportunity to end temporary employment.” UGT SP PV maintains that this number of places “does not cover even half of those that were likely to be put on offer”, for which it has shown its 2 disappointment with a decree that will not solve the serious problem of temporality that the Generalitat has and that leaves thousands of interims and interims in a complicated situation ».
In addition, the union criticizes that the Ministry of Justice and Public Administration “has left out of the decree the negotiation on the scale, a cornerstone of this process” and has not provided all the required information. In his opinion, the lack of agreement and the distancing of the unions with the greatest representation 2 leaves the Valencian Executive in a very bad place and, in particular, the Department of Justice” and underlines that, on the other hand, it has supported other agreements, such as the achieved in the instrumental public sector and in the field of Health.
