Automatic summary, not yet reviewed

  1. The law regulates the representative bodies, participation, and the procedures for setting working conditions of staff linked to Public Administrations through an administrative or statutory relationship, including staff serving the Administration of Justice.
  2. Military members, judges, magistrates and prosecutors, most security forces, and labor personnel are excluded from the law; labor personnel are governed by common labor legislation.
  3. The representative bodies are Staff Delegates and Staff Committees (Juntas de Personal Bodies made up of representatives elected by civil servants to defend their interests before the Administration.), elected for four years by personal, free, direct and secret vote, with detailed rules on elections, electoral boards and polling tables.
  4. Staff Committees and Delegates have powers such as receiving information on personnel policy, issuing reports on transfers or training plans, and monitoring safety and hygiene conditions, plus guarantees such as paid monthly hours credit for their representative duties.
  5. Negotiating Tables are created between the Administrations and unions to negotiate matters such as pay, job offer plans, job classification, and recruitment and promotion systems. Agreements may be reached, and a mediator may be appointed in case of conflict.
  6. The right to hold meetings at workplaces is recognized. They may be called by unions, Delegates, Staff Committees, or at least 40% of the group, with written notice requirements and rules on union rooms and notice boards.

Where does all this come from?

  • The data comes from the open files of the Congreso, the Senate and the BOE, unaltered.
  • Each deputy’s province is the one of their seat on the day of the vote.
  • We only say “passed” or “rejected” when the majority needed is certain; otherwise we say which side had more votes.
