Summary title: Petition No 0696/2021 by R. M. M. L. (Spanish), on behalf of the Strike Committee of the General Administration of the Government of the Canary Islands, on the status of temporary workers in the Canary Islands

Petition number: 0696/2021

Topics: Employment

Country: Spain

Name of association: COMITÉ DE HUELGA DE LA ADMINISTRACIÓN GENERAL DEL GOBIERNO AUTÓNOMO DE CANARIAS

Name: R. M.

The petitioner states that for 20 years the Government of the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands has employed 40% of its workforce on a temporary status and is thus in breach of Spanish legislation which states that structural positions occupied by temporary staff must not be offered for longer than three years. She requests that the Administration of the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands comply with the judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union and acknowledge the exploitation of the temporary status in its internal regulations and that it grant permanent status for its employment positions along with the same stability guarantees that permanent staff have.
