Public Sector Productivity
We know little about the determinants of public sector productivity compared to private sector productivity
We have launched an interdisciplinary initiative - The Governance, Leadership and Public Sector Performance - to rectify this focusing on education, health, and the police. (See also The Centre for the Economics of Education website). The health sector is an area of particular attention where we are investigating the impact of pay on the supply of nurses and the role of human resources in delivering a better quality of healthcare.
We use the framework of 'motivated agents' as public sector worker place a particular value on the service of their job. We look particularly at the issues of regional and performance related pay. (See also PIEP - The Pay Inequalities and Economic Performance website).
