According to the agreement, all those interim officials with five years or more seniority in the same position may become permanent if they prove sufficient merits to do so, but without having to make an opposition.
PSOE, United We Can, ERC and PNV have agreed this Thursday that the officials interns who have been in the same position for five years will become permanent without opposition, as EITB Media has been able to confirm. The Basque Autonomous Community has about 50,000 interns and in Navarra there are another 15,000.
The reform of the Law of the Basic Statute of Public Employees, which is in parliamentary process, will be voted first in the commission and then in the plenary session of the Congress. However, with these supports, the majority to carry it out would be insured.
According to the pact, all those interim officials who have been in the same position for five years or more may become permanent if they credit sufficient merits to do so. That is to say, they must present themselves to a merit contest, but they will not have to submit to an opposition, which will facilitate their conversion into permanent employees.
The merits will be defined by each administration in a only extraordinary call to regularize the high rate of casualties in the public sector.
In addition to public administration, these criteria will also be applied in public commercial companies, public business entities, public sector foundations and public sector consortia.
It so happens that this Thursday the Basque Parliament approved with the votes of the PNV and PSE-EE the Administration Bodies and Scales Law, finally does not include the possibility of organizing specific job calls for interns with long experience.
The draft of the law stated that when the existing interim percentage exceeds the 40 % in the positions that go into opposition, the public administrations could incorporate a “differentiated turn of access” for the interim staff who accredits more than 8 years in that position.
However, PNV and PSE-EE have chosen to eliminate this provision and thus wait for what the new state regulations on this matter will dictate.
In this context, the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa announced on Wednesday that it was leaving eight public job offers on hold (OPE) that it had planned to approve before the end of the year due to the reforms that will be approved soon and that could directly affect these calls.
