Correction of approved list Labor Inspectors 2026: what to review

Key data

The approved list for the civil service exam for the Senior Corps of Labor and Social Security Inspectors has been subject to an official correction. The Undersecretary detected errors in the resolution of April 23, 2026 and corrects them through a new resolution dated May 18, 2026, published in the BOE on May 25, 2026.

If you participated in this selective process, either through the general system of open access or through internal promotion, this correction may directly affect your official status. It is not enough to have consulted the previous list: you must verify the corrected version.

What does this regulation establish?

The resolution of May 18, 2026 corrects errors detected in the resolution of April 23, 2026, which published the list of candidates who had passed the examination and competitive examination phase of the selective process for admission to the Senior Corps of Labor and Social Security Inspectors.

The selective process was called on December 27, 2024 and includes two access routes:

• General open access system: for external candidates who pass the examination tests.
• Internal promotion: for civil servants who access from other bodies or scales of the Administration.

The corrected errors may affect the following elements of the original list:

• Name or surnames of a candidate.
• ID number or other identifying data.
• The approved or non-approved status of a candidate, which may have been incorrectly reflected in the resolution of April 23, 2026.

The correction published on May 25, 2026 is the official and binding version. Any discrepancy with the previous list is resolved by this new resolution.

Economic and operational impact

This correction does not generate direct costs for companies or the Administration in budgetary terms. However, it has relevant operational consequences for affected candidates:

• A candidate whose approved status was not correctly reflected in the original list could have lost the opportunity to advance in the process if not detected and corrected in time.
• An error in the ID or name can generate problems in subsequent procedures: accreditation of merits, appointment, taking office or access to Administration systems.
• Candidates who appear in the corrected list with changes in their status must act quickly to avoid missing administrative deadlines derived from the selective process.

From the Administration's perspective, the correction guarantees legal certainty of the process and avoids subsequent challenges based on material errors in the official publication.

Who does it affect?

• Candidates through open access who participated in the examination and competitive examination phase of the process called on December 27, 2024.
• Candidates through internal promotion who competed in the same selective process.
• Active civil servants who opted for internal promotion and whose status in the list may have been incorrectly reflected.
• Advisors and human resources managers of public bodies that monitor selective processes for the Senior Corps of Labor Inspectors.

Practical example

A candidate who participated in the selective process through open access and consulted the list published on April 23, 2026 verified that he appeared as approved. However, his ID number appeared with an incorrect digit in the original resolution.

Thanks to the correction published on May 25, 2026, his ID is correctly reflected in the official list. This is relevant because subsequent procedures—accreditation of requirements, appointment as a career civil servant, taking office—are carried out by cross-referencing the list data with the candidate's identifying documents. An error in the ID could have blocked or delayed these procedures.

In the opposite case: if a candidate did not appear as approved in the April 23 list due to a material error, the correction of May 18 can restore his official approved status, with all the consequences that entails for the process.

What should candidates do now?

1. Consult the corrected list in the BOE: access the resolution of May 18, 2026 published on May 25 at this official link and locate your name and ID.
2. Compare with the previous list: review whether your status (approved/non-approved) or your identifying data have changed with respect to the resolution of April 23, 2026.
3. Verify that your data is correct: check that name, surnames and ID match exactly with your official documentation.
4. Act urgently if you detect an uncorrected error: if after the correction you continue to detect an error that affects you, contact the Undersecretary or the calling body to initiate the complaint procedure before the deadlines of the selective process expire.
5. Follow the process deadlines: once your status in the corrected list is confirmed, stay alert to official communications about the next steps of the process (accreditation of merits, appointment, taking office).
