This report examines the pay-setting
arrangements for senior civil servants in three settings:
the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Singapore. It
concludes that: a robust analytic approach for pay setting
seems to be sufficient to maintain some general sense of
legitimacy in the process, but is not the dominant driver of
pay levels; external consultancies are employed
significantly to obtain data on salaries for comparable
positions in the private sector; the hay method is used in
many settings and the World Bank analytic approach is not
dissimilar to that used in many governments; however,
governments are different to the World Bank in some critical
ways. Like the Bank, they are driven by the need to
establish a system which is seen to be legitimate both to
staff and to the funders; thus, while the institutional
arrangements for managing and overseeing the pay-setting
process are, also, very much concerned with ensuring
legitimacy for the resultant pay settlement, and so involve
some significant delegation to signal that the
recommendations are somewhat independent, the final decision
for pay is ultimately made by government on political as
well as fiscal and economic grounds; and the numbers of
political advisors outside of the formal schemes is modest
and does not seem to have a strong influence on the
pay-setting process for senior staff in the settings studied. |
