The spokesperson for Compromís per Oliva, Yolanda Navarro, has expressed concern over the proposal, which lacks the necessary political and union consensus. As reported by the group in a press release, the decision comes at an "incoherent" time, as the city council has hired an external company to develop a new Job Classification System (RPT) at a cost of approximately 60,000 euros.
This RPT should be the central instrument for defining the municipal staff structure in a comprehensive and objective manner. The Councillor for Finance, Mario Vidal, will present a new version of the proposal at the next General Negotiation Table, seeking consensus to facilitate the rapid approval of the budgets, as even the governing partner, UCIN, opposed the initial approach.
“"We are not facing a coherent reform of the administration model, but rather a sum of uncoordinated decisions with irreversible structural effects that seriously compromise the municipality's long-term budgetary stability."
Compromís has warned about the economic impact of the proposal, which could entail more than an additional 600,000 euros and a total cost close to 2 million euros consolidated in the municipal budget. The group criticizes the lack of a clear economic report and sufficient justification for the viability or funding of this increase, without explaining whether it will be covered by tax increases or cuts in other services.
Organizationally, the proposal creates an "evident imbalance" within the staff, as it increases positions of higher hierarchy (area managers, ranks, destination supplements, availabilities, and exclusivities), while essential services such as cleaning, contracting, administrative support in urban planning, and the Citizen Attention Office, which is currently "completely collapsed," are not equivalently reinforced.
The group also points out that the proposal does not adequately address the replacement of key personnel due to retirements nor does it incorporate a coherent hiring plan. However, Compromís positively values the additions related to Social Services and the reinforcement of the Local Police with six officers and one inspector.
