For the first time, the Madrid City Council will offer specific public employment opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities.

There will be a total of 32 positions offered, whose deadline for submitting applications will open in less than two weeks.

There will be two specific selection processes, one for General Services Operator (3 places) and another for Internal Trades Personnel (29 places). Applicants will be able to request any accommodations needed.

For the preparation of these selection processes, promoted by the Department of Finance and Personnel of the City Council, a contract has been awarded to the Plena Inclusión association. It will be in charge of drafting the agendas of the two oppositions in easy reading, as well as the accompaniment and tutelage of the new incorporations. It will also be in charge of training the courts that are formed to carry out these two selective processes.

Through its “Adapta” program, Plena Inclusión will edit, adapt, validate and design, in easy reading, both the agendas of the two selection processes, as well as the rest of the announcements for opponents that will be made available on the municipal website:www.madrid.es/oposiciones .
