The Under-Secretariat of the Ministry of Social Rights convenes 136 fixed labor positions in the General State Administration, distributed among six ministries and articulated under the IV Single Collective Agreement for labor personnel of the AGE. The resolution was published in the BOE on July 9, 2026 and the application submission period opened that same day.
Access is articulated through two channels: open competition and internal promotion, with reserved positions for persons with disabilities. The complete rules will be published on the website of the calling ministry and on the Funciona Portal.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution convenes a selective process to fill 136 fixed labor positions in three professional groups of the IV Single Collective Agreement of the AGE. Below is the distribution by ministry and specialty:
| Ministry | Professional groups | Included specialties |
|---|---|---|
| Social Rights | M2, M1, E1 | Social work, physiotherapy, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
| Education | M2, M1, E1 | Social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
| Culture | M2, M1, E1 | Social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
| Economy | M2, M1, E1 | Social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
| Defense | M2, M1, E1 | Social work, physiotherapy, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
| Health | M2, M1, E1 | Physiotherapy, social work, chemistry, laboratory, maintenance, transport |
The three professional groups convened are framed in the IV Single Collective Agreement of the AGE:
- Group M2: Medium-level technical personnel (university degree qualification or equivalent).
- Group M1: Senior-level technical personnel (master's degree, bachelor's degree or equivalent).
- Group E1: Specialized trades and services personnel (vocational training or accredited experience).
The specialties convened are: physiotherapy, social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance and transport.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, obtaining a fixed labor position in the AGE means accessing an indefinite employment relationship with the remuneration conditions and stability of the IV Single Collective Agreement. This includes regulated working hours, salary supplements, career development and access to internal promotion in future calls.
For the calling ministries, the resolution allows them to meet structural personnel needs in technical and service areas that until now could be covered with temporary contracts or interim arrangements, reducing temporality in public employment in accordance with the commitments made with stabilization regulations.
The operational cost for the candidate is the examination fee paid through form 790, whose specific amount is not specified in the published resolution and should be consulted in the specific rules of each ministry on the Funciona Portal.
Who does it affect?
- Citizens in general who meet the requirements to access by open competition any of the convened specialties (physiotherapy, social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance or transport).
- Labor public employees of the AGE who want to promote internally to a higher professional group (M2, M1 or E1).
- Persons with disabilities, for whom there is a reserve of positions within the call.
- Health and social services professionals (physiotherapists, social workers) interested in the public sector.
- Laboratory technicians, chemists and audiovisual professionals seeking stability in the Administration.
- Maintenance workers and drivers/transport workers applying for group E1.
Practical example
A registered physiotherapist currently working as a temporary employee in the Ministry of Defense can apply for this call through the internal promotion channel, opting to consolidate their position as fixed labor personnel in group M2. They must submit their application via form 790 electronically within 20 working days after July 9, 2026. Since August is non-working for deadline calculation purposes, the effective deadline extends well into September 2026. If they do not submit the application during that period, they will have to wait for the next call.
Similarly, a laboratory technician with no prior connection to the Administration can compete by open competition for the positions offered in the Ministry of Education, Culture or Economy, provided they accredit the qualification required for the corresponding professional group.
What should candidates do now?
- Consult the specific rules on the website of the ministry you are applying to and on the Funciona Portal, where detailed requirements by specialty and professional group will be published.
- Verify the professional group and specialty you can apply for according to your qualification or accredited experience (M2, M1 or E1).
- Obtain a digital certificate or Cl@ve if you do not have one, since submission is exclusively electronic and without this access you cannot process the application.
- Complete and submit form 790 within the 20 working day deadline from July 9, 2026, remembering that August does not count.
- Save the electronic submission receipt as proof of compliance with the deadline.
- Check if you are entitled to the reserve of positions for persons with disabilities and, if applicable, accredit the recognized degree in your application.
Frequently asked questions
How many positions are convened and in which ministries?

The specialties include physiotherapy, social work, chemistry, audiovisual communication, laboratory, maintenance and transport, in professional groups M2, M1 and E1 of the IV Single Collective Agreement of the AGE.
What is the deadline for submitting the application and how is it calculated?
The deadline is 20 working days from the publication of the call in the BOE, July 9, 2026. The month of August is considered non-working for calculation purposes, so the effective deadline extends to September 2026. The application must be submitted mandatory electronically via form 790.

Yes. The call articulates two access channels: open competition (for any citizen who meets requirements) and internal promotion (for labor public employees of the AGE who want to access a higher professional group). Both channels are open in this call.
Where are the complete rules and requirements by specialty published?
The complete rules will be published on the website of the corresponding calling ministry and on the Funciona Portal. The BOE resolution (BOE-A-2026-14912) establishes the general framework, but specific requirements by specialty and professional group are detailed in the rules of each ministry.
Is there a reserve of positions for persons with disabilities?
Yes. The call includes reserved positions for persons with disabilities. Candidates who want to benefit from this reserve must accredit the recognized degree of disability at the time of submitting the application via form 790 electronically.
