Higher technicians in schools lose career points and are called to return thousands of euros
School psychologists, speech therapists, and social educators hired through the extraordinary program for precarious workers (PREVPAP) are being ordered to return thousands of euros to the state. The Ministry of Education is retroactively stripping career advancement points from 2017 and 2018, claiming they should not have been used for progression in subsequent years.
Why it mattersIf you are a higher technician who transitioned from a precarious contract via the PREVPAP program, you may be facing a retroactive demand to return thousands of euros in salary adjustments, which some professionals have had to cover through bank loans while awaiting court outcomes.
