The process of stabilization of the insular institution has allowed 399 workers to consolidate their positions.
The president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, accompanied by all the executive councillors of the island institution, attended the swearing-in ceremony of 64 new civil servants who have obtained a permanent position after passing the stabilisation process at the Consell de Mallorca and the Mallorcan Institute of Social Affairs (IMAS).
The new career civil servants, formerly interim staff, have passed the merit-based competition procedure to obtain a permanent position as civil servants in the special administration corps. Among the new civil servants are emergency technicians for firefighters, tradesmen, engineers, computer technicians, etc. Specifically, 20 civil servants have taken up their posts as public employees at the Consell de Mallorca and 44 have done so at the Instituto Mallorquín de Asuntos Sociales (IMAS).

64 new civil servants take office at the Consell de Mallorca
President Llorenç Galmés pointed out that ‘this swearing-in demonstrates that the Consell de Mallorca is with its workers, the real driving force of the Consell, and that the island institution is working to achieve job stability and reduce the rates of temporary employment’. The president stressed that ‘this whole process has been possible thanks to the great work done by the Mallorcan School of Public Administration (EMAP), in charge of managing the stabilisation process and the tribunals, and the great commitment and effort of this government team to reduce the temporary employment rate of public employees and meet the goal of completing the stabilisation processes by the end of the year’.
In December 2023, the Consell de Mallorca began the stabilisation process. It hosted the calls for the general and special administration of the island institution, the Mallorcan Institute of Social Affairs and the Territorial Defence Agency. Likewise, through EMAP, it took on the stabilisation processes of 29 local entities, their autonomous bodies and municipal public companies, to jointly carry out the processes and manage them in a coordinated manner.
On 1 February the first civil servants, 35 to be precise, were sworn in through the stabilisation process; on 8 April 152 workers became career civil servants for the same reason, and on 12 July a further 148 civil servants consolidated their posts in the island institution. 399 civil servants between the Consell de Mallorca, the IMAS and the ADT have taken up their posts.
The stabilisation process aims to reduce temporary employment in the Administration, as state regulations establish that the rate must be reduced to 8%, and before the call for applications, it stood at 80% in the Consell de Mallorca.
