Public health needs to recruit 100,000 nurses

by

Training professionals implies an important effort, not only on the part of people who dedicate much to study and train to develop a certain profession, but for the whole of society that has dedicated public resources to provide them with that training. For that reason, the talent leak formed in Spain, in any field, always It’s bad news. The worst part is that, as in the case of nursing, that talent leak It is contextualized in a paradox: while the General Nursing Council records record figures in nursing requests to leave Spain for their bad working conditions and high temporality, public health Recognize a deficit of 100,000 nursing professionals. Nursing makes the bags. Spain lives a black year for nursing. According to published The reason Based on data from the General Nursing Council (CGE), more than 1,000 nurses have requested documentation to leave to work abroad only in the first six months of 2025. This figure could mark a historical record at the end of the year. The CGE data They point out that, in all 2023, the figure of output requests was 1,473, while in 2024 they added a total of 1,350 requests. According to Daniel Ayuso, general secretary of the General Nursing Council (CGE): “We are training them and in the end they are migrating elite professionals abroad because the working conditions of our country are not being adequate.” The reasons for the talent escape. The causes of this migration have a name: precarious contractshigh temporality and low wages. According to The latest data Facilitated by the CGE, in 2024 10,824 new contracts for 5,802 nurses were signed, of which 77.7% (8,408 contracts) They were temporary. According toGuadalupe Fontán, coordinator of the Spanish Nurse Research Institute, “over the years, the number of contracts has been increasing, but instead the number of people hired is significantly lower than the number of contracts. This is due to the fact that, to the same person throughout the year, many short -term contracts are made. In addition, although indefinite contracts have grown, the percentage of partial days are maintained.” It is estimated that around 50% of professionals of the health sector is located in Interinity situation. These data draw a scenario in which the migration of nursing staff is contemplated as a way to obtain a stability and working conditions that do not find in Spain. Destination countries. In 2023, the main countries of destination for Spanish professionals They were Norway (336 professionals) and the United States (226 nurses). Since the entry into force of Brexit, the United Kingdom has progressively reduced its interest and now registers 92 applications. Ireland, France or Canada are among the new destinations for nursing staff formed in Spain. The paradox: Spain urgently needs them. This massive output coincides with the Official recognition In the report “Current situation and estimate of the need for nurses in Spain, 2024” by the Ministry of Health, of a structural deficit: it is estimated that, to achieve the European standard, Spain I should hire to 100,000 more professionals in the coming years. Currently, the Spanish ratio is 6.36 nurses (nurses, in female, because 85.5% are women) For every 1,000 inhabitants, far from the European average located at 8.19, According to the latest data national and European. Experts warn that this shortage not only overloads professionals, but also reduces The quality of care and puts patient safety at risk. Ayuso argues that, to reverse this situation, it is necessary to “invest in nurses, in training, in creating new places in universities, in retaining talent so that it does not go out of our borders, in recovering those who have left out.” The deficit is greater depending on where you live. The president of the CGE has put the focus on the inequality Territorial of the situation: “Citizens cannot be allowed to receive better attention than others based on the autonomous community in which they reside.” There are regions such as Navarra, with 8.92 nurses per 1,000 inhabitants, which are located above the European average. Below the 8.19 in Europe, there is a Basque Country (8.09), Canary Islands (7.55), Castilla y León (7,49), Aragon (7,4), Asturias (7,34), Melilla (7,24), Extremadura (7,15), Ceuta (7,10), Cantabria (6,77), Madrid (6.54), La Rioja (6,51) Catalonia (6.5). In the welfare vagon with the lowest ratio of nurses per 1,000 inhabitants are Murcia, which barely reaches 4.99, Galicia (5.16), Valencian Community (5.56) and Andalusia (5.56) In Xataka | Talent scarcity has chronified to an extreme point: 75% of companies do not find what they are looking for Image | Unspash (Craig Pattenude)

The public sector is an oasis of stability against unemployment. That is why 52% of workers consider opposing

by

In Spain, public employment has become a increasingly valued option For millions of people. Precariousness and job instabilitytogether with the problems to which Young people face and greater than 55 To find a job in the private sector, they are causing many people in precarious or unemployment situation to choose to prepare oppositions as a professional alternative. In A stage With 2,789,200 of people in unemployment, it is not surprising that more than half of the active population (about 12 million people) has thought of opposing seeking the security of a employment and stable salary in the public sector. The Public Employment Offer for 2025. The Government has already published the Public Employment Offer (OEP) by 2025, which includes a total of 36,588 places available. These vacancies include positions for state security forces and forces, as well as for the armed forces. Of the total, 27,697 places are new and 8,891 internal promotion. The vast majority of places, 70% (26,889 places), are intended for the General State Administration. In addition, 10% of vacancies (2,610 places) are reserved for people with disabilities, thus expanding opportunities within the public sector. Unemployment as an engine to oppose. Currently, more than 2.7 million people are unemployed in Spain, many of whom face serious difficulties in returning to the labor market in the private sector, either because they are too young and not meet the experience requirements, or for being over 55 years old. According to Report data ‘The weight of the opponent in Spain in 2025’ that the opposition formation portal elaborates every year, 48% of the unemployed between 18 and 55 years are preparing an opposition or intends to do so soon. If those who have already opposed in the past are included in the strip, the percentage amounts to 68%. The quarry of officials. The study reveals that the unemployment figures of the different autonomous communities are inversely proportional to the percentage of the active population that arises or is already preparing an opposition to one of the public employment squares. Thus, Extremadura, with a 16.60% strike According to EPA data Of the first quarter of 2025, it is the one that has prepared the highest percentage of the active population or is preparing an opposition with 48% of its population in order to work. Murcia follows, with a 12.83% unemployment rate, which records 43% of its labor mass with the intention of opposing, drawing in that figure with Castilla y León. At the opposite end, communities with less interest in opposing in relation to the total of its active population is Catalonia (19%), followed by Madrid (21%) that tied with Valencia and the Balearic Islands. How many people are? These percentages, taken to absolute numbers, assumes that 6,779,344 people are preparing to oppose At the moment or have recently opposed presenting themselves to the Latest calls. The data reveal that 9% of the people who are currently opposing a year ago. Of these, 67% had never opposed before. Which implies that the public sector is attracting a greater number of employees who would not have considered developing their career as a public official. 5,386,328 people plan to oppose in the near future, so they could participate in the call for oppositions that have just made public, or will do so for the call of 2026. In total, 52% of the active population, about 12,165,672 people are preparing, they are preparing or intention to prepare an opposition shortly, against 48% that they do not intend to do so. Official, but where? The results of the study slide that people who are opposing today do so To cover a place for the administrative or auxiliary body and for positions in health or education. The results are similar among those who have expressed their intention to oppose in the near future, the most quoted administrative places being. The main difference between those who plan to oppose and who is already doing it, we find in the aspiration of the new opponents for presenting themselves to a postal square, which almost quadruples.

The last public employment offer leaves a revealing fact after years of record figures: Spain needs more officials

by

In recent years, the Pedro Sánchez government has promoted public employment calls that have broken historical figures for the number of public employment places. However, the new Public Employment Offer (OPE) for 2025 that has just known a turning point marks. Although it will have 36,588 new places, this figure represents a reduction with respect to the previous calls, and shows a worrying reality: the lack of personnel in the administration. New call 2025. The New Public Employment Offer presented by the Executive contemplates a total of 36,588 places, which represents a decrease of 9% with respect to the 2024 offer that was 40,146 places. Specifically, the number of places corresponding to the General State Administration is reduced mainly, which this year adds 26,889 positions, that is, 4,500 less than the previous year. This marks a change of trend against the years in which the calls carried the label of “historical” for its volume of places. The Independent Trade Union and Officials (CSIF) summarize it Clearly: “The places are insufficient to cover the losses accumulated in the administration of the State in recent years”, in addition to the majority union of the officials, they slide that the absence of new budgets and the freezing of funds of the European Union are already noticed in this call. Distribution by bodies and lack of personnel. Among the bodies that will be reinforced their workforce are the State Security Forces and Bodies. According to official data, the National Police Corps will have 3,139 new places, 300 more than the previous year, while the Civil Guard will add 555, reaching a total of 3,713 new places. The army too It will increase its template In 2025, with the incorporation of 2,847 new troops, 200 more than in the previous year. For its part, the Central Administration will have 20,324 new free access places, which will add 6,565 internal promotion places, which must be covered with part of the new 20,324. In that quota, 8,851 places of new allocation are also included to strengthen citizen service services in the offices of the SEPE, foreigners, cadastre, issuance of the DNI, DGT, Social Security or Tax Agency. The challenge of the generational relief. Since the current government arrived at La Moncloa, he says have summoned 260,000 public employment places. As Minister Óscar López highlighted in the presentation of the OPE by 2025, this leaves an average of 32,522 annual public places. Even with that effort, the reality is that the structural needs of employment in the public sector continue to be effective. As reflected in the EPA data (Active Population Survey) of the first quarter of 2025, for the first time since 2018, public employment registers a decrease of 51,900 people in its template. Thus, although the calls try to compensate for accumulated casualties, the balance is still negative. One of the main challenges facing the administration is to absorb the Retirements planned for the next decade. According to collected data In the study on the aging of the templates in the General State Administration 2024, 59.95% of the staff of the General State Administration is over 55 years old. This aging forces the administration to Compensate retirement that each year occur, with new additions. In 2023, for example, the number of retirement was 10,758 officials, while only 8,770 new officials were incorporated to cover those places, leaving a deficit of 1,988 positions that were not covered that year. Below the average public employment in the OECD. Internationally, the data does not accompany. According to the report ‘Government at A Glance 2025’ Of the OECD, Spanish public employment represented in 2023 15.25% of the total active population, below the average of 18.41% of the OECD countries. In addition, despite the increase in the number of places, the Public Employment Growth It has been developed at the same rate as private employment, without equating the boom that other countries have applied to balance essential public services.

A sentence forces the Principality of Asturias to pay the glasses to a public employee. It is only the first of many

by

The Occupational Risk Prevention Regulations establishes a series of mandatory measures and recommendations to maintain the Safety of work environmentsand forcing companies to adopt measures of protection for your employees. Adequate clothing, helmets, gloves, protective footwear, etc. However, what happens when what causes physical damage is the continued use of screens in the workplace? That is the situation that a public employee In 2021. The Social 1 Court of Mieres, in Asturias, has responded to the lawsuit forcing the Asturian administration to take care of the Cost of graduated glassesopening the door to future demands of other employees in the same situation. What happened? As extracted from the sentence to which Xataka has had access, the affected person is a work worker of the Principality who performed maintenance assistant at the Sports Center of El Cristo in Oviedo. In 2021, the center digitized the access control system, so the employee increased the use of screens in his job. As a result of the use of screens, the employee began to present visual discomfort that before the change did not suffer affecting his visual acuity in the use of the screens. In 2024, the employee asked the Principality of Asturias for an ophthalmological review and the provision of new glasses adequate if the recognition recommended it. The autonomous administration ignored both “leaving it without answer,” says the sentence. In January 2025, on behalf of the employee, the legal service of the USIPA-SAIF union He filed a lawsuit against the Principality claiming the application of European directives and The sentences of the Court of Justice of the European Union. The protagonist: Directive 90/270. In his sentence, the Mieres Court forces the Principality of Asturias to provide or cover the cost of glasses to a public employee to need them to work with screens, in compliance with article 9 sections 1, 2 and 3 of the European Directive 90/270on minimal safety and health provisions for work. This European directive complements community regulations through a series of minimum provisions common to all EU countries. In the aforementioned article 9, the eye protection measures and the view of the workers are established. Specifically, “if you experience visual difficulties that may be due to work with the screen.” Under this article the right to ophthalmological reviews is collected, and forces employers to provide employees with “special corrective apparatus appropriate to the work in question”. A pioneer sentence. The sentence recognizes the employee the relevance of the application of that 90/270 directive and the European jurisprudence with a Judgment issued in Italy where this right is also recognized that employers must provide special corrective devices (such as glasses) if medical recognitions justify them. The sentence distinguishes between “normal corrective devices” (general use, out of work) and “special corrective devices” (specifically necessary For tasks with screens), putting the focus in the latter, since the employee only reported “visual acuity disorders that had been diagnosed, however, it is incumbent at the aforementioned jurisdictional body to verify whether the graduated glasses in question effectively serve to correct view disorders related to their work and not general view problems.” Thus, the sentence fails in favor of the employee forcing the administration of the Principality of Asturias “to be carried out an ophthalmological medical examination, (…) as well as that they are given with graduated glasses if they were prescribed by said option as necessary to perform their daily work in front of the computer screen or reimburse them The expenses of its acquisition“, is specified in the sentence. Why is the sentence important? The application of these regulations by the Mieres Social Court feels a precedent in the prevention of occupational hazards, normalizing the ocular protection of those employees who are exposed to long days in front of screens without the equivalent of protection to a helmet in the case of workers or gloves for a carpenter. Maria Guadalupe Lorenzo, lawyer of the Legal Service of the Usipa-Saif Union of Asturias that has led this case, says that “from our union we are already formulating claims of the future extensions of effects to this sentence for the labor personnel who are in a similar situation, as well as claims for the official personnel and other affiliated workers. There will be multiple claims and surely more sentences in this regard.” The sentence is firm because the Principality has not appealed, so its application is immediate.

Tesla wants to keep certain accidents of accidents with her cars. A judge will decide if they should be made public

by

The Autopilot and the Total Autonomous Driving Capacity (FSD) have been available in the Tesla sold in the United States for years. Its existence, its commercial deployment and even its general operation are well known. What remains a mystery are some details of the accidents occurred With those activated systems. Tesla does not want this information to come to light, and now he has resorted to court to keep it locked. The origin of the conflict is in a lawsuit filed by The Washington Post against NHTSA, the Federal Road Safety Agency of the United States. The newspaper requests access to the full spreadsheet that compiles the reports of incidents occurred while the Tesla driving assistance systems were activated. According to the medium, the NHTSA publishes some data, but retains “critical details” such as environmental conditions, the location of the claims or the concrete versions of the software that were in use. For the plaintiffs, it is information of public interest that can shed light on the true performance of these technologies. A defense based on commercial secret As Reuters collects, Tesla has responded firmly. This week, he presented a writing before the Federal Court of the Columbia district to oppose the publication of this data. Its central argument is that certain fields of reports contain sensitive information. Specifically, the hardware or software version, the indication of whether the car circulated inside its Designed Operational Domain (ODD) and the detailed narrative of the accident. According to the company, revealing these elements would allow its competitors to evaluate the effectiveness of each version of the system, track the pace of improvement and associate errors with specific versions. It is, says Tesla, “a technological road map” that could cause severe competitive damage. The NHTSSA, meanwhile, has partially backed that position. In a separate writingthe agency coincides with Tesla that these three fields are protected by the Law of Freedom of Information (FOIA). Both argue that it is not only privacy, but of commercial confidentiality, a category that can legally justify that documents are not delivered to the public. The newspaper’s lawyers, on the other hand, have alleged that this information is already partially accessible to the drivers themselves and that their compilation should not be armored by the business secret. Now it is the Federal Court who must decide whether that information comes to light or remains hidden. But the debate is not purely legal; It occurs in full scrutiny of driving assistance systems. As NPR points outNHTSSA investigates FSD’s yield in 2.4 million vehicles After several accidentsincluding mortal in 2023. It also maintains other inquiries on collisions in low visibility conditions and on the function Actually Smart Summon. Although not all collisions are known publicly, the confidential spreadsheet that the Washington Post claims contains the incidents that Tesla regularly refers to the agency, but seeks to delve into the information that is made known. Autopilot, improved autopilot and total autonomous driving capacity are the three levels at which Tesla organizes its driving assistance systems. The first, Autopilot, comes standard in new vehicles sold in the United States and includes functions such as adaptive cruise control and autogyro, which keeps the car inside the lane. From there, the user can pay to access a more advanced package, the improved autopilot, or directly to the total autonomous driving capacity (Full Self-Driving or FSD), the most complete set offered by the brand. In practice, none of these systems converts the car into an autonomous vehicle. Despite his name, Full Self-Driving requires the driver to be attentive, with his hands on the steering wheel and willing to take control at any time. Tesla makes it clear: These are systems designed to attend, Not to replace the driver. That does not prevent functions such as automatic lane changes, assisted parking or the ability to stop before traffic lights and stop signals (in beta) are already available in many cars. They are important advances, but under mandatory human supervision. Images | Tesla (1, 2, 3) In Xataka | It seeks to hunt influencers.

Spacex has finally made public why the last Starship exploded. All rumors were wrong

by

White and in bottle? Milk. Two Consecutive starships that exploit In the same flight phase, practically in the same minute, in similar ways? Anyone would say that there was a common cause, but it was not so. Context. Spacex has shed light on the explosive loss of Starship During his eighth test flight on March 6. After successfully capturing the Super Heavy propeller, all expectations were set on the ship, which in the previous launch had failed during the ascent phase. After a successful separation and before reaching the necessary altitude to turn off, Spacex detected a flash near one of the central engines of the ship, followed by an “energy event” that made the engine disappear. Shortly after, two other central engines and one of the outer vacuum engines went out, which caused the ship to lose control nine and a half minutes after takeoff. The Starship 34 He disintegrated About the Caribbean. They were not the vibrations. After two consecutive explosions, everyone assumed that the problem had been the same. On flight 7, Starship 33 was lost eight minutes and 20 seconds after takeoff Because of stronger vibrations than expected, that had caused leaks of liquid oxygen and a fire In a non -pressurized area of ​​the lower part of the ship, which Spacex calls the “stern attic”. But it has not been so. “Although the ruling manifested himself at a point similar to that of the seventh flight, it is worth noting that they are clearly different,” Spacex wrote in a recent statement. “The mitigations implemented after flight 7 to solve the problems of harmonic response and flammability of the ship operated by design as planned,” added the company. What arose was a new problem. What happened on flight 8. According to the Spacex statement, the most likely cause of the loss of the ship during the eighth flight was “a hardware failure in one of the central raptor engines of the upper stage of the rocket, which resulted in a mixture and ignition not deliberate of propellents.” In essence, a engine component failed, causing a fuel leak and mixture (liquid methane) with oxidant (liquid oxygen). The consequent explosion destroyed the engine and committed the survival of the ship. Both problems originated in the lower part or stern of Starship, but the failure of flight 7 occurred in the “attic”, and that of flight 8 in the “basement”, the motor bay. All ready for flight 9. To address this new ruling for the ninth flight, Spacex has implemented reinforcements in key starship 35 joints, a new nitrogen purge system and improvements in the propellant drainage system. Later, he plans to introduce the new generation of Raptor 3 engines, with a complete redesign that addresses this type of problem. If there are no more delays, The ninth flight will take off this Tuesday, May 27 At 18:30, local time in Starbase (1:30 on Wednesday in Spain). It will be The first to reuse a super heavy propeller; Specifically, Booster 14, which flew in the seventh mission. The ship, on the other hand, will try again the objectives not achieved on flights 7 and 8, such as the deployment of eight Starlink satellit simulators and multiple reentry experiments.

Some Tesla employees requested Elon Musk’s dismissal in a public letter. The company responded with fulminating dismissals

by

In recent months the situation of Tesla It has been complicated for a series of catastrophic misfortunes. Some of them were predictable, such as the punctual fall in sales before The renewal of its supervent model, the Model and. Others, on the other hand, have been entirely unexpected. As the reputational crisis that has collapsed the sales of the brand’s cars worldwide by the Elon Musk’s political implication and his role Doge front. The Tesla crisis not only manifested outside doors. The Sales fall And the growing discontent among employees have triggered an internal crisis between the template unprecedentedputting Elon Musk in the center of the hurricane. Employees They claimed Elon Musk’s departure of the company’s management. That petition has resulted in dismissals, but not that of his CEO. An unsustainable situation even for the template The internal tension reached its peak when a group of Employees from Tesla, both current and old, decided to publicly express their discontent with the management of the company. They did it through an open letter Published on the Web “Tesla Employees Against Elon”. In the publication, employees and small shareholders who had been part of the Tesla staff directly requested the departure of Elon Musk as the company’s CEO. “We are at a crossroads: continue with Elon as CEO of Tesla and face a greater decline as customers leave the brand, or advance without it and allow our products and mission to succeed or fail for themselves,” he explained in the workers’ statement. The signatories They pointed out that the damage Musk’s personal brand is “irreversible” and that his figure as the maximum representative of Tesla has become In a load for the entire template. Employees reproach their main manager His intention to “rename” In the Tesla direction, and they consider it “insulting” for being an explicit recognition that Tesla’s problems are the result of its neglect of functions at the head of the company. “Let’s be clear: we are not the problem. Our products are not the problem. Our engineering, service and delivery teams are not the problem. The problem is demand. The problem is Elon,” said the statement. More electric, but less Tesla While the electric vehicle market grows at a good pace, Tesla’s sale figures do not give signs of recovery. In Spain, the brand already registers falls of more than 16% and none of Tesla’s models appears among the 10 best -selling electric cars In Spain. According to data April of the Spanish Association of Automobile and Truck Manufacturers (ANFAC) The electrified tourism market grew 79% last month, which represents a 6.5% sales increase with respect to the same period last year. The phenomenon is not limited to Spain. Reuters echoed the latest data from the global electric vehicle market, which in April had grown by 29% year -on -year, despite uncertainty for tariffs imposed by the US. The US electric car market also records upward values. The data of Cox Automotive indicate a Growth of 18.5% In the volume of new electric car sales month by month, while the Tesla market share fell five points to 42%. The data announced in its presentation of Results of the first 2025 quartercorroborated this downward trend. The manufacturer delivered 336,681 vehicles, which represented a 13% drop with respect to the same period of the previous year, when almost 387,000 units had been delivered. As the employees pointed out in their open letter, “this is not due to the fact that our cars have worsened. It is not due to affordability problems. But to the fact that people no longer want to associate with Elon. Production marches better than ever. Quality is high. Processes are solid. Demand is what fails. It is not a product problem.

Loneliness is already a matter of public health. We have more and more evidence that animals help us to placate it

In recent years, we have seen how loneliness has become a problem with numerous ramifications, including toilets. The “male solitude epidemic” is one of the faces that has given more to talk, but loneliness also affects other sectors of the population. And small details can help, if not to solve it, perhaps at least to relieve it. Pets. Domestic animals They can help To placate the feelings of loneliness, as a new study has observed. Interestingly, the study key is not in the company that they could offer, in themselves, these animals, but in their ability to boost and facilitate social interactions between people. The work was done in Australia and focused on two groups notoriously susceptible to this problem: older people and international students. The team found that animals could be useful to facilitate the interactions between these two groups, improving the well -being and health of both. “We find that older adults and international students experienced a significant decrease in feelings of loneliness and a significant increase in their health. The presence of living pets in particular helped break the ice and facilitated conversations between participants,” stood out in a press release Em Bould, co -author of the study.

Loneliness can accelerate our cognitive deterioration and has also been linked to lower life expectancy. Pilot project. The study was based on a pilot project in which 30 elderly people participated in different residences of the Australian state of Victoria, as well as 11 international students. For 18 weeks, participants held periodic meetings, of one hour every week, in which various leisure activities linked to animals were carried out. There were also animals, and robotic versions of these. Some of the participants in the pilot project (six older people and 10 students) also participated in the evaluation of the program and subsequent study. These participants completed several surveys and also participated in a semi -structured survey. Measuring loneliness. Measuring loneliness is not simple, but there are some tools dedicated to this, such as the scale of the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA), the one used in this analysis. The team also evaluated the health status of the participants, through an instrument of 5 dimensions-Europe. The evaluation was positive in both dimensions. The team responsible for this observed both a decrease in the sunny index and an ascent in the health index. The details of the study were published in an article in the magazine Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice. Fight loneliness. The fact that in an era that stands out for advances in communication technologies La Soledad has acquired such dimensions is a sad irony.
