Overview
- The DOG publishes calls for 327 positions in Galicia’s wildfire service: 71 jefe de brigada, 181 bombero forestal and 75 conductor, with reserved quotas for internal promotion and for people with disabilities.
- Applications are open for 20 working days starting Wednesday, with three eliminatory tests that include a theory exam, a 3.2 km Field Test carrying 11 kg within 30 minutes, and two Galician–Spanish translation exercises.
- The process corresponds to the 2023 public employment offer, and coverage reports the contest‑opposition exams are planned for February.
- CSIF and CC.OO. argue the timing favors external aspirants over active firefighters engaged on the fire lines and say the call arrives during an intense fire wave in areas such as Quiroga and A Pobra do Brollón.
- CSIF, UGT and CC.OO. denounce a critical staffing deficit of roughly 200 posts, note an extraordinary 198‑slot call was only half covered, demand the removal of the Secretaría Xeral Técnica and warn of potential mobilizations, while criticizing the eight‑month fixed‑discontinuous model that rises to nine months in 2026.
