90% of the interim members of the Generalitat become civil servants due to regularization

More than 90% of the temporary staff of the Administration, services and other groups of the Generalitat have become civil servants through the stabilization process demanded by the State and the European Union. There are more than 12,200 interim workers who had been working in the Administration for more than five years. They are people who, despite working for the Generalitat, had accessed a public job through a selection process but without passing an opposition.

Now the majority have carried out the contest. Those who have not succeeded, a total of 475 people, will receive an average compensation of about 15,000 euros.

With this process, the temporality of the Administration and services personnel area, which was about 54,000, has gone from 24% to around 8%. Last December, the overall workforce of the Generalitat – not counting public companies – was 189,000 workers. At that time, the temporary ones still represented 27% of the total because the stabilization processes in the areas of health and education had not yet been completed. In the period 2021-2023, the number of public employees of the Generalitat has grown by 14%.

Of the 12,295 people, 11,411 have stabilized their jobs in the Generalitat with the two avenues of the extraordinary stabilization process, such as the merit-based competition and the opposition competition.

In a meeting with the media, the Secretary of the Public Service, Alicia Corral, explained this Tuesday that the administration of the Generalitat had to comply with the European regulations that require reducing the temporary employment rate below 8% by the end of 2024.
