| Summary: | Bank support for civil service reform
(CSR) in developing countries used to focus mainly on
improving government pay, and employment practices. In
recent years, CSR programs have sought a broader set of
management improvements. But getting public pay and
employment right is still fundamental: establishing
appropriate civil service employment dimensions, and
providing rewarding-but affordable-remuneration for public
servants remains a formidable challenge for many countries.
Pay policies need to be fiscally responsible, but also
attractive enough to draw the best talent into the public
sector. In addition, such policies must be politically
feasible; governments need to support difficult reforms that
can survive implementation without being undermined or
derailed. The Civil Service Pay and Employment Model (CSPEM)
was created to help governments develop realistic civil
service pay and employment strategies, and to enhance policy
discussions within government, and between government and
donors on these important reforms. This note describes early
lessons of experience with civil service pay and employment
modeling tools. |
