Canary Islands Government Announcements

New Permanent Staff Appointments

• The Canary Islands government has officially contracted 15 new employees as permanent staff in the Public Administration.
• This move follows a swift and urgent selection process.

Legal and Administrative Steps

• Appointments stem from various legal and administrative steps, including:
  • Approval of candidates who passed recent exams
  • Exclusion of applicants pursuing career stability through other systems
  • Adherence to laws targeting job stability and quality
• The selected candidates will sign fixed-term contracts between late November and early December 2025.
• Their official start dates are set for January 2026.

• It reflects a broader effort by authorities to combat the excessive reliance on temporary workers, a common issue in Spanish public administrations.
• The government emphasizes transparency by providing detailed lists of candidates and vacant positions.
• Those who do not successfully join the list face an eventual end to temporary contracts.

Alignment with National Initiatives
