INGESA Laborer Competitive Exam 2026: Provisional Lists and 10-Day Deadline to Remedy

Key data

If you submitted an application for the INGESA Laborer competitive exam called in April 2026, this is the critical moment: INGESA has approved the provisional lists of admitted and excluded candidates through Resolution of July 15, 2026, published in the BOE on July 30, 2026. From that date, the remedy deadline begins.

If your name does not appear on the list of admitted candidates, or appears on the excluded list, you have exactly 10 business days to act. After that deadline, exclusion may become definitive.

What does this regulation establish?

The Resolution of July 15, 2026 approves the provisional lists of persons admitted and excluded from the competitive exam selection process for fixed positions in the Laborer category of INGESA, originally called through Resolution of April 23, 2026.

The lists have a provisional character: candidates can challenge them or remedy defects during the enabled deadline. The exclusion reasons included in the resolution are as follows:

• Identity or nationality accreditation problems
• Lack of disability accreditation (where applicable)
• Not being in unemployment situation at the time of application
• Income exceeding the Interprofessional Minimum Wage (SMI)
• Not having indicated exam location in the application

The complete lists are available through two official channels:

• INGESA website
• General Access Point of the Administration

Economic and operational impact

For candidates, the impact is direct: an exclusion not remedied within the deadline means losing the opportunity to access a fixed statutory personnel position in the public health system of Ceuta or Melilla, territories under exclusive INGESA jurisdiction.

Fixed Laborer positions offer job stability as statutory personnel, with the remuneration conditions and professional career prospects of the public health system. Loss of this opportunity due to failure to remedy in time has a significant labor opportunity cost for those affected.

From an operational perspective, the process requires having active digital identification (Cl@ve) to carry out any remedy procedure. Candidates without Cl@ve activated must manage it urgently within the available deadline.

Who does it affect?

• Admitted candidates: must verify that their data on the list is correct and that there are no errors in their file.
• Excluded candidates: must review the reason for exclusion and remedy it within 10 business days from 30/07/2026 if the reason is remediable.
• Unlisted candidates: those who submitted an application and do not appear on either list can also claim within the same deadline.
• Persons in unemployment situation in Ceuta and Melilla: the process is specifically directed at this group, with income requirements (not exceeding SMI) and employment situation.
• Persons with recognized disability: must properly accredit their condition to avoid exclusion for this reason.

Practical example

A candidate residing in Ceuta who submitted their application in May 2026 checks the lists published on July 30 and finds that they appear on the excluded list for not having indicated the exam location in their application.

Since this reason is remediable, they have 10 business days from July 30 to access INGESA's electronic headquarters, identify themselves with their Cl@ve certificate, and submit the remedy by indicating the exam location they desire. If they do so within the deadline, their file will be reviewed and they may move to the definitive list of admitted candidates. If they do not act, their exclusion will be consolidated and they will be excluded from the selection process.

Another case: a candidate who submitted an application and does not appear on either list must also claim within the same 10 business day deadline, providing proof of having submitted their application in a timely manner.

What should candidates do now?

1. Check your status on the lists: access INGESA's website or the General Access Point and search for your name on the list of admitted or excluded candidates.
2. Identify the reason for exclusion if applicable: the excluded list indicates the specific reason. Check if it is remediable (identity, exam location, disability accreditation, unemployment situation, income level).
3. Activate Cl@ve if you don't have it: remedy is carried out exclusively through electronic headquarters with Cl@ve identification. If you don't have it activated, manage registration urgently, as the 10 business day deadline runs from 30/07/2026.
4. Submit the remedy within the deadline: access INGESA's electronic headquarters, identify yourself with Cl@ve and submit the documentation or correction corresponding to your reason for exclusion.
5. Keep the submission receipt: preserve the electronic acknowledgment of receipt of your remedy as proof that you acted within the deadline.
6. If you don't appear on any list: claim equally within the same 10 business day deadline, providing proof of your original application.
