Pay System Review for Civil Servants

Chinese public servants' pay would no longer be based solely on their official rank under a revision to the civil service system being considered by the government.

Instead, the Yangtze Evening News reports that their remuneration would also be based on their ability, accomplishments and experience.

Under a draft law, all government positions will be further grouped under the job types of administration and regulation implementation, judicial affairs, professional technology and comprehensive management.

The increase in the number of ranks and sub-ranks is aimed at giving officials more chance to improve remuneration over the course of their careers.

Apart from increasing productivity, the move also aims to entice civil servants to stay on with the government by creating greater flexibility in pay scales.

At present, the civil service is divided into 15 ranks. An official's remuneration package is determined by rank and sub-rank. So becoming a high-ranking official is the main goal of many newcomers as soon as they enter the public service.
