The Regional Government has extended the deadline for defining standard values in the cooperation model between the ISSM and social sector institutions due to the process's technical complexity.
Ordinance no. 142/2026, from the Regional Secretariat for Inclusion, Labour and Youth, introduces the second amendment to Ordinance no. 720/2023, extending to 42 months the deadline for defining social responses and their respective standard values within the scope of cooperation between the Madeira Social Security Institute (ISSM, IP-RAM) and social and solidarity sector institutions.
The decision is justified by the need for methodological deepening and progressive validation of technical benchmarks, aiming to avoid misaligned values that could compromise the financial sustainability of the institutions. Until this process is concluded, the current funding regimes remain in force.
A public employment contract has been signed with Mara Patrícia Vieira de Gouveia for the position of Senior Technical Staff at the Institute for Qualification, IP-RAM.
The Regional Secretariat of Finance has opened two recruitment procedures to fill one operational assistant position and six senior technician roles.
The Institute for Qualification, IP-RAM, has signed an indefinite public employment contract with Débora Natacha Pereira Lucas.
