Canary Islands Government Approves Candidates for Permanent Public Positions

Overview

The Canary Islands government has officially approved a list of candidates selected for permanent positions in its public administration. This marks a key step in its efforts to stabilize employment and reduce temporary contracts.

The announcement was published on August 28, 2025, and confirms the candidates chosen by the Evaluation Committee following recent exams and evaluations.

Context and Goals

This move is part of ongoing efforts to make public sector employment more stable and efficient, in line with new laws aimed at reducing temporary contracts across Spain.

Selection Process

Candidates now have a ten-day window to:

• Submit their documentation online
• Rank their preferred job openings

The government emphasizes transparency and fairness in this process, requiring candidates to:

• Confirm their identity
• Confirm their health capacity

Candidates who fail to meet these requirements within the deadline risk losing their right to employment offers.

Candidates participating in multiple recruitment processes must choose one to avoid being excluded from other selections.

Broader Reforms and Legal Framework

This initiative is part of broader reforms to improve public employment stability, which benefits residents by:

• Ensuring better public services
• Reducing job insecurity within government roles.

The official bulletin highlights the legal framework governing the process, including:

• Provisions for appeals
• Managing cases of force majeure.

"The process is designed to ensure transparency and fairness across all stages."
