Answer

Why is Palma reviewing the salaries of municipal employees now?

Palma has commissioned an external review of pay across almost 3,000 municipal jobs to improve transparency and compare tasks more fairly. The city says many roles have changed over time, so older pay structures may no longer reflect day-to-day work. The real question is whether the findings will lead to practical changes or stay as recommendations.
