The financial coverage is ready: €2,661,750 for 2026 and the same amount budgeted for the following year.

They total €5,323,500, which has already been incorporated into Resolution 134/2025. The mayor, Massimo Zedda, signed the seal, announcing the plan for "nearly 250 hires in three years."

The Municipality of Cagliari truly needs a new workforce. Because "the local government contract," Zedda emphasizes, "is the worst in the public sector," and this leads to a constant drain of employees. For purely economic reasons. Currently, the Municipality employs 1,089 workers; in 2008, there were 1,550; in 2015, 1,362. Zedda, who supports the single regional-local government bargaining agreement, a political dream with equal pay for central and local government, isn't afraid to repeat it: "The contracts" for those who work in a Municipality "aren't even attractive," but recruitment cannot be stopped. At Palazzo Bacaredda, they're preparing to announce new competitions.

It should be added that voluntary resignations by employees, especially those to the Region, are compounded by retirements.
