28/08/2025

It has been retroactive since January 2024 so in the August payroll they perceive the amount of the last 20 months

“Some 10,000 employees and public employees of Melilla will see an additional income reflected in this payroll thanks to the increase of 0.5% approved last month by the Government of Spain.”

As explained by the Delegate of the Government, Sabrina Moh, this is an increase that has a retroactive character since January 1, 2024, so “in addition to that increase of 0.5% that they will receive month by month from now, in this payroll will be reflected an extra income for the total amount owed in the last 20 months”.

Thus, the highest representative of the Government of Spain in our city recalled that this increase is due to the agreement approved by the Government of Spain in the Council of Ministers last month, thanks to which they will benefit from a half point increase in their salaries.

This salary improvement is part of the agreement that the Government of Spain reached with CCOO and UGT in terms of salary improvement for the years 2022, 2023 and 2024, which included a total increase of 9.8%, in addition to a series of review clauses linked to the behavior of the IPC, among which is this 0.5%.

In the first year, the increase was 3.5%. In 2023, a fixed increase of 2.5% and an additional increase, linked to HICP and GDP data, of 1%, were applied. Finally, by 2024, the remuneration grew by 2%, to which a variable part of 0.5% was added depending on the parameters marked by the IPCA.

Specifically, this 0.5% increase that is now approved fulfils the condition that the sum of the variation of the HICP of the years 2022, 2023 and 2024 exceeded the fixed remuneration increase accumulated in that same triennium.

Improvement of the Welfare State

“During these 7 years, the Government of Spain has made a firm commitment to the improvement of the Welfare State and, precisely for that reason, the public administrations have been modernized, the staff of public employees have been strengthened, and the salaries have been improved, year after year, of the professionals who carry out the work of the public service,” he said.

The record Public Employment Offers of recent years, the programs to attract young talent and the reinforcement of attention to the citizen, are other examples of that commitment to public services that the Government of Pedro Sánchez has championed since its inception, he has apostilled.
