Perception Survey of Civil Servants: A Preliminary Report
Despite various attempts at reforming the civil services the
common perception seems to be that the system essentially remains
similar to that inherited from the colonial past. Worse still, little is
known about the perceptions of civil servants on various issues in civil
service reforms. Against this backdrop, the Pakistan Institute of
Development Economics conducted a perception survey of civil servants
seeking their views on recruitment, training, performance evaluation,
job satisfaction, and relationship with the private sector. This
preliminary report highlights the key findings of the survey. Section 2
sets out the survey methodology. Sections 3 to 7 respectively highlight
the survey findings with respect to recruitment, postings and training,
performance evaluation, job satisfaction, bureaucracy, private sector,
and institutions and reforms
