Recognition of prior services provided on a part-time basis.
Law 70/1978, of 26 December, on the recognition of prior services in the Public Administration, provides for the recognition of prior services without the type of day chosen (full-time or part-time) being relevant.
Law 70/1978, of 26 December, on the recognition of prior services in the Public Administration provides for the recognition of prior services without the relevant type of working day chosen (full-time or part-time), since neither the aforementioned Law nor the consolidated text of the Law on the Basic Status of Public Employees, approved by Royal Legislative Decree 5/2015, of 30 October, establishes any distinction in this regard.
Likewise, for the purposes of triennials, it must be taken into account that these constitute basic salaries that are not conditioned by any rule other than the effective provision of services for three years, the recognition of which does not depend on the type of working day chosen by the official, without prejudice to the fact that the specific payment of the triennials generated and already recognized may be affected by the type of working day in which the official provides his services at any time, in his condition of basic salaries.
