Summary of surveys whose respondents are drawn from the body of professional government administrators, were undertaken in the last 2 decades, and which contain data amenable to statistical analysis (determined by the quality of measurement and the sample size). Only those surveys for which there exists sufficient public information on their characteristics have been included.
To create a user-friendly tool containing details of key civil servant surveys (which meet the above conditions). The objective is to provide researchers interested in civil servants survey data or metadata with an instrument which can be used to look up country-specific civil servant surveys. The ultimate aim is to create an annually updated catalogue of civil servants surveys which provides users with a comprehensive and standardized compilation/set of survey data/metadata.

CIVIL SERVICE SETTING
How survey documentation introduced the survey context (where provided)
World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. In 1998, total employment in Albania's public sector (comprising general government, state enterprises and state farms) was 213,000. This accounted for 16.1% of Albania's total labor force and 6.3% of its population. However, civilian government employment (i.e. public sector employment without state farms, state enterprises, police and military) accounts only for 2.6% of population and 7.8% of the total labor force.

Survey documentation stated that there was no estimate available of the size and setting of the civil service for Antigua & Barbuda.

The Australian Government run a yearly survey on the state of its service. This particular survey was partially motivated by significant changes in size and composition. The Australian Public Service (APS) grew in size over the year 2007, and in 2008 had just over 160,000 employees. However, the rate of growth in 2008 was lower than in previous years, with the rate of new engagements in the second half of the year dropping considerably compared to previous years. The proportion of women in the APS continued to increase and they accounted for over 60% of the entrants to the APS. At senior levels, female representation continued to increase, with the gap between the number of male to female Executive Level (EL) 1s having fallen to less than 1,000, it was predicted to disappear within two years. Women account for 37% of the Senior Executive Service (SES) employees. SES numbers grew further during the year (now accounting for 1.8% of the APS workforce). The trend towards a higher classification profile has continued, along with the trend towards a higher proportion of mature-aged employees. The proportion of Indigenous employment in the APS was 2.1% and there was a slight decrease in the number of ongoing Indigenous employees (down by 49 to 3059). There was a further decline in the number (4636) and proportion (3.1%) of people with disabilities employed in the APS.
The Australian Government run a yearly survey on the state of its service. In June 2014 there were 159,126 employees in the Australian Public Service (APS). This total comprised 145,891 ongoing employees (down by 4.1% from 152,189 in June 2013) and 13,235 non-ongoing employees (down by 10.9% from 14,862 in June 2013). During 2013–14, 4,672 ongoing employees were engaged (down by 38.9% from 7,652 in 2012–13) and 11,131 ongoing employees separated from the APS (up by 15.6% from 9,627 in 2012–13).
World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. Between 1972 (when Bangladesh became independent) and 1994, the number of ministries almost doubled from 21 to 35. During the same period, public employment (in civilian government comprising state owned enterprises, ministries, departments, directorates, autonomous bodies and sub-national governments) grew at the annual compounded rate of 3.6% to almost 1 million in 1992, after which it has remained nearly steady. The nearly 1 million people employed by government amount to one-third of all formal sector employment. As percentage of the country's total labor force, government employment in Bangladesh is lower than most other countries in South Asia. During the period 1992-93 to 1998-99, personnel expenditure (pay and allowances) in the public sector has declined, both as a proportion of current expenditure and the GDP.
World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. Bolivia's non-financial public sector, accounts for about 99% of public employees and about 95% of total public expenditures. It is divided into general government and state-owned enterprises. Between 1989 and 1999, total public sector employment in Bolivia has stayed fairly constant at around 200,000 people while public sector employment as a share of the total labor force fell from 17% in 1989 to 12% in 1996 and to 4% in 1999. In 1998 the public sector was comprised of 219,937 employees, 211,658 of them employed in central government bodies. One of the most ambitious administrative reforms in Bolivia's recent history is the 1990 passage of the SAFCO law, the Financial Administration and Governmental Control System (Sistema de Administración Financiera y Control Gubernamental). This ambitious law tried to establish a new approach to public management, through the design of integrated system . It was concerned with basic improvement of administrative systems, but was also a cutting-edge law in the sense that it tried to inculcate a concern among public employees for the results obtained with public resources, by emphasizing the importance of holding individual managers accountable for results.
The Public Service Employee Survey (PSES) has been conducted every three years since 1999.

World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. The size of the civil service in Bulgaria is small in comparison with OECD countries, its composition reflects a disproportional share of health and education employment. Over the period 1997 to 1999, the number of central government employees increased by 28.2%, from 30,264 in 1997 to 38,788 in 1999. The increase in the number of local government employees over the same period was only 4.3%. The overall increase in the total number of central and local government employees was 16.2%. Bulgaria's central government and local government is small compared to OECD country levels (indeed Bulgaria's central government is only around a quarter of the size of OECD country central governments); while its education and health sectors are comparatively large (2.72% for Bulgaria compared to 2.1% for OECD countries in the area of education; and 1.95% for Bulgaria compared to 1.4% OECD countries in the area of health). In 2000 there were 4 million civil servants, 3.6 million which were employed in central government bodies.
The National Survey on Institutional Environment and Performance is conducted annually since 2007 for the purpose of monitoring the development of public administration institutions. After the proclamation of the Political Constitution in 1991, the scope and type of state intervention was modified. This macro-institutional change resulted in the organisational change of public bodies to better fit the new competencies and responsibilities of the Colombian state structure.

World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. The Public Service in Guyana includes public servants working for ministries and their affiliated departments, the Regional Administrations (RAs) and the Constitutional Agencies (CAs). There are 21,206 public service posts of which 12,024 (56.7%) are filled and 9,182 (43.3%) are vacant. Of the recorded 21,206 positions, 63% are in ministries, 31% are in RAs and 6% are in CAs. Three fourths of the filled positions in the public service are in the lowest 5 grade levels. During the 1990s, public employment in civilian government (excluding police) has fallen significantly. Since 1993, the number of employees has fallen from 56,000 to about 31,000, and total public employment in Guyana today accounts for 13 percent of the labor force. In 1993, a 14-band salary structure was introduced and on the basis of job evaluation, all existing posts were mapped on to the new structure. The Government of Guyana has undertaken some major exercises to improve the remuneration structures. To correct for the real wage declines in the public sector in the 1980s and early 1990s, the government first revised the salary structure in 1993 and later approved a series of wage increases since 1994. Wage supplements were additionally granted over base pay to critical positions. Following the public officials' strike in May-June 1999, the Arbitration Tribunal awarded a larger than expected increase in public salaries. Civil service salaries were raised by 31% through the arbitration award. An additional 27% increase has been granted in the year 2000.
A civil service survey was conducted by the GOI department as tool through which perceptions and views of the civil servants working within the administrative system could be obtained in a systematic and scientific way following the introduction of a new set of reforms. The Government have initiated several reforms in civil services in the country. A new Performance Appraisal System has been introduced for All India Services and Central Civil Services. A new system for assessing the performance of government departments has also been initiated. A legislation to improve the management of civil services and to define fundamental values of civil services is under active consideration. The Government is bringing about changes in recruitment process of civil services. The civil services engage a very large work force of about 6.4 million employees at all levels within the State Governments and the Central Government which can be broadly classified as belonging to three categories: All India Services, Central Services and the State Services.
The Pay for Performance (PfP) project was initiated by The Research Group of the World Bank Development Economics Group (DECRG). Interested in evaluating the effects of the BR allowances on the performance, efficiency and morale of civil servants in Indonesia, DECRG intended to collect data on the above through perspective-based survey done by the civil servants. Indonesia has 4.7 million civil servants, out of which approximately 800,000 are employed in central government ministries and agencies. Indonesia, like many developing countries, has complex structure for civil service pay. For staff in central government ministries, cash compensation (excluding in-kind allowances for car, housing, and utilities) has three main elements: basic salary, allowances, and honoraria. Basic salary and allowances are considered a “fixed” or guaranteed allocation that staff receives irrespective of the type or level of work that they are engaged in. Honoraria are, at least on paper, given to staff for taking on activities and responsibilities that are above and beyond their regular duties.
World Bank Public Officials' Surveys were a one-off initiative led by Nick Manning and Ranjana Mukherjee of the World Bank to survey civil service officials across multiple countries in a comparable way. Indonesia’s civil service consists of some 4.6 million people. Of this, about 500,000 are police and military, leaving some 4 million civilian civil service. At about 2% of the population, this is small compared to Indonesia’s South East Asian Neighbors, although it is about at par with other low or low-middle income countries such as China and India. In addition, a large but unknown number of civil service workers are not registered as such. These Tanang Kerja Non-PNS (non-pegawai negeri, or non-civil service workers) are either local government employees paid from local government revenue sources, or government employees paid from the development budget. They could add up to 20-30% to the numbers of public sector workers, but no systematic data are available. In addition to this, there are some 1.9 million retired civil servants whose pensions are included in the government wage bill, which is some 5% of GDP, or a quarter of Government spending.

To inform the ongoing reform agenda initiated by the Obasanjo administration, the Presidency worked with the Office of the Head of the Civil Service to identify challenges to productivity in all three tiers of the civil service. Nigeria is Africa’s most populous country, home to 160 million individuals, double the size of any other African country or 20% of all the population of sub-Saharan Africa. Ministries are the central coordinating authority within each public sector domain, such as health or water. Each is headed by a politically-appointed Minister who is aided by a bureaucratically appointed Permanent Secretary. The civil service is organized around the federal structure of the nation’s polity, so that there are federal, state, and local government civil services.
This survey provides the first systematic evidence of the depths of organizational crisis in the Federal Bureau of Revenue (FBR) in Pakistan. Tax collection in Pakistan and the FBR have long been the subject of deep concern. Low tax collection has undermined fiscal policy, but also the provision of public goods that are necessary for development. Tax collection is a central function of government. It is obvious that breakdowns in tax collection reduce the revenues needed to finance public good provision and support for the most vulnerable. In Pakistan, tax revenues in 2012 were 10% of GDP; only 37% of those revenues (less than 4% of GDP) came from profits and income taxes – the function of the FBR. These numbers are similar to – but uniformly lower than – those of other countries in South Asia and of lower-middle income countries in general.

This World Bank survey of government officials was conducted to asses the impact of the Performance-Based Bonus (PBB) scheme on staff perceptions of various human resource management practices. This assessment was done at the request of the Department of Budget and Management (DBM).The PBB scheme, launched by the President in his State of the National Address in July 2012 and elaborated in Executive Order 80 that shortly followed, is one of the major initiatives of the Government to improve public sector performance as it links a portion of civil servants‘ pay to the achievement of individual and working unit targets. The PBB is the first performance incentive scheme of any significance introduced in the government, and applies to all departments as well as state universities and colleges, and government owned and operated corporations. It complements a number of regulatory, organizational, and budget reforms, which include the identification of five key Presidential priorities, or Key Results Areas (KRAs), to concretize the mission of the administration. The government bureaucracy is comprised of roughly 1.2 million public servants.

The Government and Anti-Corruption Country Diagnostic Surveys are a World Bank initiative which have been developed to assess governance and anti-corruption to allow countries to measure and evaluate critical public sector governance issues to feed into participatory, targeted reform planning. The programme is composed of 3 surveys: a household survey, a public officials survey and an enterprise survey. Ultimately the goal of the diagnostic is to improve the quality of public services by improving governance in personnel and resource management, access to services and citizen feedback mechanisms. In 2002 the City Hall of São Paulo, called the Prefeitura do Municipio do São Paulo (PMSP) requested assistance in better understanding the challenges of governance and corruption in the City.

Following the signing of the Arusha Peace Agreement in 2000, the government of the Republic of Burundi expressed its priorities for addressing the challenges of reconstruction and reconciliation. In this context, the Government asserted his interest to improve governance and reduce corruption through improving transparency in the management of public goods. This engagement was reflected in a letter addressed to the President of the World Bank in 2006, requesting assistance to carry out an in-depth, in-country governance and anticorruption (GAC) diagnostic. With the use of surveys of domestic citizens/ service users, managers of enterprises, public officials and non-governmental organizations representatives, the diagnostic will provide data and analytical information to assist the government in policy design to improve governance and reduce corruption. Based on the GAC results, a Governance Action Plan will be prepared by the government in collaboration key stakeholders in the country.

During the 1990’s the Government of Bolivia (GOB) also introduced measures to improve the strategic governmental coordination and performance-based evaluation of its institutional policies at every level. Yet, despite GOB reform initiatives, the results of these reforms were mixed, partially due to the fact that most of the reform measures were not fully implemented, and Bolivia's economic performance remained very low as a result. Recognizing that strengthening governance and combating corruption is an integral element for promoting sustainable development, former GOB President Banzer requested World Bank assistance in devising an anti-corruption plan in the fall of 1997. With World Bank assistance, the government developed a strategy to help promote the objectives of the Dialogo Nacional. In 1999, the Government of Bolivia (GOB), with the support of the World Bank Institute conducted a major survey of public officials. This diagnostic effort sought to describe and identify the main governance-related problems related to corruption and performance in a sample of Bolivian institutions involved in the provision of public services.

On February 4, 2000, the Government of the Republic of Guinea created the National Committee Against Corruption and for Moral Improvement in Economic and Financial Activities (CNLC). Within the framework of its activities, the CNLC, in collaboration with the World Bank, resolved to carry out a nation-wide survey to measure how corruption and other issues related to good governance are perceived by the public opinion.

Ultimately the goal of the diagnostic is to improve the quality of public services by improving governance in personnel and resource management, access to services and citizen feedback mechanisms. Recognizing the importance of improving service delivery and greater accountability in Haiti, the government created in 2004 the "Unite de Lutte Contre la Corruption", a semi-autonomous body charged with taking the lead in establishing a broad-based national strategy to promote good governance and combat corruption. In this context, the Government of Haiti (GOH), in collaboration with the World Bank Institute, decided to organize a national survey on governance and the perception of corruption. The empirical survey will provide the data and analytical information needed to mainstream governance in sectoral reforms and develop a more effective anti-corruption program and strategy. This activity is designed to assist the GOH and others in understanding the nature and causes of corruption in Haiti and help sequence reforms that would help curb corrupt practices and improve the delivery of services to citizens.
The Government and Anti-Corruption Country Diagnostic Surveys are a World Bank initiative which have been developed to assess governance and anti-corruption to allow countries to measure and evaluate critical public sector governance issues to feed into participatory, targeted reform planning. The programme is composed of 3 surveys: a household survey, a public officials survey and an enterprise survey. Ultimately the goal of the diagnostic is to improve the quality of public services by improving governance in personnel and resource management, access to services and citizen feedback mechanisms. The main objective of this effort is to facilitate and support the design of an integrated strategy to fight corruption and promote good governance through the strengthening of public institutions.

In March 2000, the Zambian government created the National Capacity Building Programme for Good Governance in Zambia. In order to facilitate the coordination, monitoring and evaluation of the Programme, the Government created the Governance Development Unit (GDU) which falls under the Ministry of Legal Affairs. The goal of the GDU was to establish a database for effective monitoring and evaluation of the Programme and to undertake a baseline survey on governance. It was in January 2001 that the government of Zambia officially requested World Bank support in carrying out the diagnostic survey as a first step in the ultimate goal of developing an effective governance and anti-corruption strategy.

Following the government’s efforts, the Malagasy Anti-Corruption Commission (Conseil Supérieur de Lutte Contre la Corruption CSLCC) in collaboration with the World Bank and other donors decided to engage on a national survey to measure the level of corruption in the nation.

Under the transition government that came into power in August 2005, Mauritania committed to a number of important governance and anti-corruption reforms that were expected to continue after the democratic elections in March 2007. In addition to adhering to the UN and African Union conventions against corruption, the government took steps to ensure transparent management of oil revenues, begun implementing the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), launched improvements in public financial management systems, and announced the preparation of a national anti-corruption strategy. Seizing this window of opportunity, the World Bank and other donors launched an effort in 2007 to actively assist the government in these efforts through technical assistance and capacity building activities. In this vein, the Mauritanian government made an enthusiastic request to WBI for assistance in implementing a governance diagnostic. The diagnostic was to form part of an innovative sectoral governance approach which focuses on the sub-national governance issues affecting key sectors.

Since its inception, in 1994, the Palestinian Authority (PA) has faced accusations of corruption. As early as 1997, a Palestinian Legislative Council inquiry identified several major problems. These included misuse and mismanagement of public funds, favouritism in awarding of licenses and contracts, misuse of public positions for uncompetitive dealings, and monopolistic uncompetitive practices in certain sectors. In the past decade, the PA has worked to strengthen economic governance and combat corruption, both essential to sustained economic growth and improved delivery of public services. The PA has made significant progress in its public institutions, establishing a strong governance environment in many critical areas. But it also identifies areas where reforms are underway but incomplete or, in some areas, not yet under consideration. Major reforms have been put in place to strengthen the PA’s public financial management (PFM) systems and better manage its equity holdings, two crucial components in the public finance sector. In other important areas, such as public procurement, public sector employment, regulation of the private sector, and the work of anti-corruption institutions, reforms are underway but have not been fully implemented.

In 2015 there were 152,430 employees in the Australian Public Service (APS), down 3.5% from June 2014, and 103 agencies. The APS represents 12% of the Australian labour force.
The Australian Government run a yearly survey on the state of its service. It was acknowledged in last year’s State of the Service report that the Australian Public Service (APS) had entered a period of tight resourcing which was likely to persist for many years. The 2013 budget and subsequent announcements confirmed this picture, with a number of initiatives taken to reduce government spending, including through increased efficiency dividends. Natural attrition in the APS is currently 4.1%. This has fallen significantly compared to the peak, which was reached in 2007–2008. Engagements in 2013 were running at close to historic lows at the time of the change of government. Indeed, there is only one instance in the past 20 years when engagements as a proportion of the workforce has been lower than it is today, and that was in 1996–1997. To minimise the costs of achieving the overall reduction in public service numbers implicit in the forward estimates and other policy statements, the government has introduced temporary measures to restrict new hiring. At June 2013, there were 167,257 APS employees, a decrease of 907 or 0.5% from 168,164 employees at June 2012.
The Australian Government run a yearly survey on the state of its service.The State of the Service Report 2011-12 contains information on changing workforce trends and organisational capability. It details the human resource management practices and other activities of APS agencies. In 2011–12, APS numbers increased by 1.2%.

The state of social and economic development of the Russian countryside is one of the majorgaps in the postsocialist transition of the Russian Federation. The incidence of poverty in ruralRussia is twice that of the urban areas. According to the 2002 census, the share of the poor livingin rural areas has doubled since the mid-1990s. About 60 percent of the extreme poor are ruralRussians. With 27 percent of the population (about 38 million people) living in rural areas, thisdevelopmental gap is economically significant. One way in which the government of Russia triedto address this gap was through major decentralization reforms. After a major decentralization reform that took effect in 2006, all rural settlements in Russia were required by law to hold public hearings before approving newly legislated formal settlement budgets.
Myanmar is in the midst of a democratic transition in which the civil service plays a profound role. The civil service will be the driving force behind the transformation in public service institutions which will enable the Government of Myanmar to meet the needs of a complex transformation. As the face of government in local communities, with responsibilities for delivering public services effectively and in a non-discriminatory manner, civil service personnel are key to furthering Myanmar’s democratic transition and strengthening the trust in the state. The Union Civil Service Board (UCSB) is implementing structural and procedural reforms in the Civil Service, as part of the Government’s Third Wave of Reforms focused on Administrative Reforms.

SAMPLING METHOD
Stratified sampling (by hierarchical level)
Not stated
Stratified sampling (by hierarchical level). To divide each country-sample into the top, middle and general strata, sanctioned posts in each grade were, first, obtained from the budget estimates. This actual was, next, used to divide the sample of each country into the three groups in the same ratio as exists in the civil service of that country. The 'top' group was found very small (about 2% of the civil service in each country) in comparison to the middle and general. Decision-making powers are however concentrated in this group, and managers of the East Caribbean Institutional Review needed to know the perceptions of this group in some detail. Thus, each country sample was deliberately weighted in favor of the top level.

Ministry officials module: Sample was designed to be representative of each of the 9 performance categories and of each individual department. The department sample is thus a proportional sample where the proportions are based on the individual/bureau rating categories. Most of the departments surveyed had presence mainly in the NCR region. For departments with national coverage (DPWH, for example) we restricted the sample frame to the NCR, Cebu, and Davao regions, yielding large (but incomplete) coverage in these cases.

This sample could not be compared against the total population of the civil service as there were no official figures provided during the study of the demographic characteristics of the civil service. Therefore, survey results cannot be extrapolated to the total civil service population and selection bias for questions on recruitment.The survey tried to interview proportionally to the type of trainee that was attending the CICS. There were two lists given to MSR, one with female trainees and one with male trainees. It is also possible that some respondent demographics are over-represented.

Restricted access to officials caught up in the budget exercise, and Easter festivities in the islands resulted in the actual number of responses from each country being slightly less than ideal samples suggested to CARICAD.
The survey responses were re-weighted to reflect the characteristics of the underlying population of APS employees (294 different weights applied).

The survey questionnaire was designed for administration to Class I i.e. 'higher category' civil servants only from ministries (departments and directorates) and from statutory bodies. However, during the survey the sample was extended to include district level officials and some officials not belonging to Class I. The available information does not permit analysis by classes of respondents.
While drawing the sample, 14 out of the15 organizations identified for the survey did not give E&E a list of employees to construct the sampling frame. As a result, E&E used the 1992 Public Employees Census as an initial database for constructing the sampling frame. As they obtained more accurate (but still partial) lists of agency employees, they corrected the original sampling frame. For this reason, they were not able to draw a probability sample, and they resorted to quota sampling (sampling based on certain pre-determined characteristics of the respondents such as gender, ethnicity, etc.).

The Government of Mauritania, launched the Mauritania Sectoral Governance Diagnostic in November 2007. By the spring of 2008, a local private statistical firm had been selected to conduct 3 surveys (household, enterprise and public official). In early August 2008, in the midst of the first data collection (of enterprises), the country experienced a coup d’état. Fortunately, the enterprise data collection was completed, but the political volatility made collection of household and public officials’ data impossible. The project was put on hold in the midst of the political uncertainty. In late spring 2009, a decision was made to finalize and close out the project. A final report was submitted in May 2009 summarizing the results of the enterprise data collection.
Survey instruments were pre-tested on 15 public officials.
