Doing Better with Less? The Future of the Government Workforce: Politics of Public HRM Reforms in 32 Countries

2016 | Business & Finance

This publication contributes to a discussion about the future of public employment and HR policies in the context of a changing statehood and new financial pressures. It presents comparative quantitative and qualitative data in the field of public employment and human resources management. These data were collected through the OECD "2015 Survey on Managing Budgeting Constraints: Implications for HRM and Employment in Central Public Administration". This book provides an improved understanding of the broad reform trends that have affected public employment and human resources management across OECD member countries since the 2008 financial crisis. It challenges many popular assumptions, increasingly puts into question traditional characteristics of public administration systems and provides answers as to many outcomes of HR reforms.
