Canary Islands Government Provisional Employment List for Technical Body of Medium Grade

Overview

The Canary Islands Government has officially established a provisionary employment list for the Technical Body of Medium Grade, specifically for the Employment Technical Scale (A248), to fill temporary staffing roles. This step follows a selection process launched in October 2025, aimed at improving administrative efficiency and reducing job insecurity in public sector roles.

Selection Process

  • Candidates' rankings depend on their self-assessment scores, with a minimum of two points needed to qualify.
  • The list prioritizes those with higher merit scores.
  • In cases of ties, alphabetical order is determined by a random draw from the General Directorate of Public Function.

Modernization and Transparency

The process reflects ongoing efforts to modernize public employment procedures, making them more transparent and merit-based.

"The publication also includes a list of provisional exclusions and details on the review process before final appointment."

  • The entire process is governed by specific legal measures implemented to safeguard fair employment practices and transparency.
  • The government emphasizes that the list remains provisional until the final review and signing of employment contracts.

Reforms and Regional Hiring Policies

Expats and residents should note that this process highlights ongoing reforms in how public sector jobs are assigned, with a focus on fairness and efficiency — key factors for anyone relying on public employment services or affected by regional hiring policies.
