At least 104,201 Alicante residents are employed in Public Administrations. Undoubtedly, a recovery beyond a considerable recovery. Even though the figure has a trick. And beyond the mergers taking place, the report published by the Government For the first time, contracts of less than six months and staff in training or internship are counted.until now it had remained uncertain, at least for statistical purposes.
The government’s recently published latest statistical bulletin on personnel working in Public Administrations for July 2023 reflects a large increase in the number of employees in all regions compared to the same month of the previous year. At the national level, 236,461 more people joined the list without going any further.The total figure remains 2,967,578.
And in large part, as noted in the report’s foreword, this strong rise is due to the fact that in this edition information on all temporary contracts, not just those with a fixed duration, is included in the data. for more than six months, as it has been until now. Other categories of personnel in training or internship are also included, as indicated in the text. providing a global picture of public employment.
Regarding the Valencian Community, the increase was 25,268 workers, making the figure 282,630.. In the province of Valencia it increased by 6,490 to 143,156, and in the province of Castellón it increased by 2,726 to 35,273. However, the real increase occurred in the province of Alicante with 16,052 people, bringing the total number to 104,201.
Another striking element about the province of Alicante is this: Almost all of the increase corresponds to employees affiliated with the Autonomous Administration., specifically 15,958, leaving the total number at 72,304. The increase of 40 employees in the state’s public sector will reach 10,172, a long way from now; The number rises to 21,725, 54 of which are from local governments. Another issue that stands out is that Of the total public employees in the province, 61,768 are women and 42,433 are men..
In the bulletin, the distribution of the State’s public sector personnel is mentioned, 6,142 people serving in the Armed Forces and Security Forces3,872 correspond to personnel from different departments of the Administration and 158 to personnel working in the courts.
With all this, Paco García, general secretary of the CC OO in l’Alacantí and Les Marines, thinks that most of the increase recorded at the statistical level corresponds to personnel on temporary contracts or internships. “We know there are business combinations going on by the Generalitat, but we are nowhere near that rate,” he explains. And he underlines that there is still a long way to go in this field and, bearing in mind the following, suggests: “We have close to 50% temporary employment rates in the province of Alicante in both Health and Education”.
Yolanda Díaz, secretary of the UGT in the same region, emphasizes that the previous autonomous government made different opposition calls for the stability of the personnel, but adds: “There is still much work to be done, both on this issue and on addressing intergenerational change in civil servants.”.
