Rémunérer le travail des fonctionnaires

Regards croisés sur l'économie, 2020, vol. n° 27, issue 2, 212-221

Abstract: Public-sector employees? pay doesn?t compare with that of private-sector employees. It is set unilaterally, not through negotiation with public employers. It is not linked to the employee?s economic performance but to their position in a hierarchy. It is therefore disconnected from their personal investment at work, which remains collective in nature. Performance-related pay only concerns a small part of their overall earnings. While New Public Management theories have sought to ?privatize? public-sector employees, they have failed to change a specific relationship to work dominated by a sense of social and collective utility.
