The Servicio Andaluz de Salud (SAS), the health authority of the Junta de Andalucía, published the final lists of the Bolsa de Empleo for statutory staff in subgroups A1 and A2 on 9 November 2026. According to the regional government, 53,182 applications for 63 categories and specialities were assessed within seven months; the published lists take effect on 10 November 2026. This is intended to ensure that hospitals and health centres in Andalusia can enter the Plan de Navidad with updated rankings and assessed qualification records.
The published lists cover 63 categories, including 44 specialities for Facultativos Especialistas de Área (FEA), as well as professional groups such as physiotherapy, speech and language therapy, primary care medicine (Medicina de Familia), primary care paediatrics, podiatry, Técnico Superior de Nutrición y Control de Alimentos, occupational therapy and several nursing specialities. The relevant cut-off date for assessing merits was 26 February 2026; this also applies to applications included in the final lists now published.
The measure is part of a reform package agreed with the trade unions in December 2025 to reorganise the employment pools. The aim is to introduce a Bolsa Única with continuous updates, greater transparency in the allocation of temporary contracts and more efficient workforce planning. Under this framework, people from the Bolsa Extraordinaria de Especialistas en Ciencias de la Salud will be automatically transferred to the regular lists; the special lists are then to be opened for applications again, making it possible to plan the entry of medical residents and nurses after they complete their specialist training.
The Junta says a new window will open from 30 November 2026 for applicants to add or update their supporting documents; the cut-off date for assessing merits in this supplementary round is 30 September 2026, and entries made by 27 November 2026 are eligible. The notice gives no details of the specific effects on individual posts or possible objections to list entries; these must be considered by the institutions and committees concerned.
