Castro Caldelas opens a job bank to fill a full-time cleaner position

The Castro Caldelas City Council has called for the creation of a job bank and the hiring of temporary labor personnel to cover, on a full-time basis, the position of cleaner/subaltern for the schools and facilities dependent on the CPI Virxe dos Remedios. The call is signed by the mayor, Sara Inés Vega Núñez, and is published in section IV (Local Entities) of the BOP de Ourense on October 23, 2026, with the official reference R. 2.549. The deadline to submit applications is only three calendar days.

The call is framed within the need to temporarily cover the leave of the person currently occupying the position. This is not a public employment offer with a vocation for permanence, but rather a substitution labor contract linked to the duration of the holder’s incapacity, which explains both the urgency of the deadlines and the selection formula chosen by the Council.

The municipality has recently closed other administrative actions this month: the Plenary initially approved on October 8 the credit supplement file number 5/2026, for an amount of 13,248.25 euros and financed with the General Treasury surplus, and the Mayor’s Office approved on October 6 the bases for the 2026 nominative subsidies through Mayor’s Decree 2026-0247. Across the province, other councils also opened job banks in October, such as Manzaneda or A Mezquita, a common figure for organizing lists of applicants for temporary contracts.

Characteristics of the called position

• Number of positions: one (1).
• Denomination: cleaner/subaltern of the schools and facilities dependent on the CPI Virxe dos Remedios.
• Modality: temporary labor contract for substitution.
• Working day: full-time.
• Duration: until the incorporation of the position holder.
• Selection system: merit competition.

The position covers cleaning tasks in the schools and municipal facilities linked to the center, a dependency that in the municipality has a use that goes beyond the academic: the electoral census tables published in the same bulletin on October 12 identify the public school Virxe dos Remedios, on Toural Street, as the electoral venue for Castro Caldelas.

Three calendar days to submit applications

The announcement sets an especially tight schedule:

• Deadline: three calendar days, counted from the day following the publication of the announcement in the BOP de Ourense.
• Location: Registry of the Castro Caldelas City Council or any of the means admitted by law.
• Full bases: published on the municipal electronic office, http://castrocaldelas.sedelectronica.gal.

The brevity of the deadline—three calendar days, with no extension to business days—forces those interested to prepare the documentation immediately, as the publication in the bulletin is the sole reference for the count. The announcement does not detail in its text the specific merits that will be valued in the competition, which are referred entirely to the content of the rules accessible on the electronic office.

Merit-based competition versus competitive examination

The City Council opts for a merit-based competition, a procedure that values the training and experience accredited by the applicants without eliminatory tests. This system is frequent in short-term substitution calls, as it allows the vacancy to be filled with faster processing than a competitive examination.

The call does not specify in the announcement the amount of remuneration nor the professional classification group, data that must be consulted in the rules published on the electronic office. Nor is a specific date fixed in the bulletin text for the constitution of the tribunal or for the publication of the results.

The publication of this pool also occurs within a context of intense administrative activity in the City Council, which in recent days has reported the approval of rules for nominative grants and a new credit supplement, procedures that add to the ordinary personnel management.

Relevance for the residents

The call is an opportunity for local public employment in a small municipality, but also a test of administrative agility: anyone wishing to apply for the position has only three calendar days from publication to register their application, and must consult the rules on the electronic office to know the valuable merits and the required documentation. The filling of the substitution guarantees, for the duration of the holder’s leave, the continuity of the cleaning service in the schools and facilities dependent on the CPI Virxe dos Remedios.
