The public company Tragsa<\/strong> is set to undergo a significant transformation in response to a scandal involving the hiring of J\u00e9ssica R.<\/strong>, the former girlfriend of Jos\u00e9 Luis \u00c1balos<\/strong>. This incident, where R. was reportedly paid without performing any work, has prompted Tragsa to impose a new action plan aimed at preventing nepotism and protecting the integrity of public operations.<\/p>\n In light of recent controversies, Tragsa is gearing up to implement a protocol that mandates all assignments received from the State, regional governments, or public entities such as Adif<\/strong> to undergo a legal assessment by the company’s legal advisory team. This is a critical measure designed to ensure that contracts align with the group’s social objectives and do not serve as a facade for inappropriate worker placements.<\/p>\n The intention here is clear: Tragsa aims to prevent any semblance of favoritism or misuse of its status as a public entity, defined as a “means of the State”<\/strong> whose sole client is the Administration. The company envisions creating a transparent system that not only mitigates but outright eliminates potential abuses.<\/p>\n The new protocol also stresses the reinforcement of supervision and tracking of personnel operations. It highlights the need to avoid “illegal worker transfers,” particularly for staff members who provide services in client offices. This includes establishing strict oversight of work hours and attendance since these were areas of concern in R.’s case. <\/p>\n Moreover, the action plan includes a review of the temporary hiring processes<\/strong> to boost transparency, aiming to remove any components that might compromise the selection fairness.<\/p>\n Certain areas within Tragsa, including the Presidency, Audit Direction, and Human Resources<\/strong>, are assigned specific responsibilities to uphold these measures. Notably, the only individual dismissed due to R.’s hiring was a manager from a tier that does not fall under these key oversight areas, signaling a potential oversight in existing regulations.<\/p>\n The protocol how mandates training for middle management, a critical development given that such training was previously nonexistent. This step is essential for equipping managers to effectively implement preventive actions and uphold the new standards set by the protocol.<\/p>\n Sources close to the unions indicate that several aspects of this plan are already in practice, even before formal approval from the Board of Directors. However, they emphasize that preventing irregular hiring must be a top-down initiative. Future evaluations may even extend to site managers who lack the necessary tools to avoid the hiring of personnel based on personal relationships rather than merit.<\/p>\n Tragsa\u2019s new protocol represents a pivotal shift towards improved integrity and accountability within public service. By instituting rigorous preventive measures against nepotism and ensuring rigorous vetting of assignments, the company aims to restore trust and uphold its reputation. As the protocol progresses, its successful implementation could very well set a precedent for public agencies nationwide, emphasizing the importance of transparency in governance.<\/p>\nKey Changes in Recruitment Policies<\/h3>\n
