HANGİSİ KAMU ÇALIŞANLARI İÇİN DAHA İKNA EDİCİ VE TEŞVİK EDİCİDİR: FİNANSAL TEŞVİKLER Mİ FİNANSAL OLMAYAN TEŞVİKLER Mİ?

Etkinsizlik ve verimsizlik son yıllarda kamu kesiminde en çok öne çıkan meseleler arasındadır. Genel bakış açısına göre, kamu çalışanlarının iş performanslarının artırılması için motivasyonları yükseltilmelidir. Literatürde yüksek motivasyona erişebilmek için çok sayıda teşvik edici araç ve ödül öneren motivasyon teorisi bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca birçok bilim insanı da sadece bir takım ödül türlerini listelemeyi ya da güdüleyici sınıflandırmalarından bahsetmeyi tercih etmiştir. Finansal tabanlı teşvik edicilerinin yaygın kullanımına rağmen, parasal olmayan teşvikler de çalışanların motivasyonunun ve performans seviyelerinin yükseltilmesinde önemli bir oynamaktadır. Bu nedenle finansal olmayan teşvik ediciler ve ödüller meselesi, bireysel motivasyon ve performans konularında çalışan bilim insanları tarafından tüm dünya genelinde incelenen ve analiz edilen bir diğer önemli alandır. Elbette finansal ödüller tercih edilebilir ve önemli güdüleyiciler arasındadır ancak, bu araçların özellikle Türkiye gibi katı bir personel yönetimi sistemine ve daha sosyal-eşitlikçi çalışma ilişkilerine sahip ülkelerin kamu kesiminde dikkatlice kullanılmaları gerekmektedir. Bu nedenle finansal olmayan teşvik edici araçların da kamu çalışanlarına daha yüksek motivasyon sağlanmasına yönelik çalışmalarda dikkate alınması gerekmektedir.

WHICH ONES ARE MORE PERSUASIVE AND PROMOTIVE FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYEES: FINANCIAL OR NON-FINANCIAL INCENTIVES?

Inefficiency and unproductivity have been among the most prominentissues in the public sector for a few decades. According to the general perspective,to increase public employees’ working performance, their motivation shouldbe increased. There are many motivation theories suggesting many incentivesand rewards for getting higher motivation in the literature. Furthermore, manyscholars also preferred to list a set of reward types or to mention incentiveclassifications.Despite the popularity of financial incentives, non-financial incentivesalso play an important role in increasing levelof employees’ motivation andperformance. Therefore, the issue of non-financial rewards and incentives isalso another important area, which has been delved and explored by scholarsstudying on individual motivation and performance around the world. Certainly,financial rewards are among the “preferable” and significant motivators but theyshould be used carefully in the public sector, especially in some countries having astrict personnel management system and more social-equalitarian labor relationssuch as Turkey. Therefore, it also needs to regard non-financial incentives when astudy on higher motivation for public employees.
