The union Comisiones Obreras (CCOO) has denounced corruptive practices among the management of public schools in Catalonia to select teachers "by appointment," demanding the Government repeal three key decrees.

According to a study prepared by CCOO, the use of profiled positions and interview-based selections has caused a 20% drop in permanent teaching positions in just ten years. This situation generates significant job instability.

These practices generate inequality and instability among civil servants and must be repealed immediately.

For the union, the three main causes of this situation are the staffing decree, the center autonomy decree, and the management decree. Therefore, CCOO demands that the Government eliminate these regulations to ensure transparency in selection processes.
To assert these demands, CCOO has called a demonstration in Barcelona for this Saturday and a new general strike in the education sector scheduled for February 24.
