MOTIVATION SYSTEM OF CIVIL SERVANTS OF KAZAKHSTAN: ASSESSMENT AND PROSPECTS FOR IMPROVEMENT

Abstract

The success of public administration depends on the extent to which civil servants realize their professional potential. The insufficient level of motivation of civil servants is an obstacle to their effective work. Ways to increase professional potential through motivational interventions aimed at developing the competence of civil servants remain undeveloped. Therefore, the main focus of this study will be on the assessment of the modern system of motivation of civil servants and consideration of ways to improve it in the Republic of Kazakhstan, which is relevant and of great scientific and practical importance.
 The paper notes the features of the motivation of civil servants, analyzes foreign experience in motivating the professional activities of civil servants and considers the directions for stimulating their work; a modern system for evaluating the performance of civil servants based on a survey has been studied. In the process of conducting an empirical study in Kazakhstan, the processing of questionnaires made it possible to identify the main factors motivating the professional activities of active civil servants. The sample set of the conducted survey allowed to achieve a high level of representativeness of the results and conclusions.
 The new model of civil service, which has been tested, is based on a factor-score scale. The new system of remuneration of civil servants will make it possible to select the most conscientious and versatile employees for the civil service, which will improve the quality of public administration. Thus, we carried out an analysis of the effectiveness of the system of motivation of civil servants in the Republic of Kazakhstan, evaluated them, and developed measures to improve the motivation for the professional activities of civil servants of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
