지방자치단체 공무원 인력산정모형의 적정성 분석

Abstract

Appropriate government workforce size is necessary to increase the efficiency of public sector operations. The purpose of this study is to review the current model for calculating the manpower of public officials in local governments. Therefore, in this study, it was examined whether the model for calculating the manpower actually achieved its purpose, and whether it was structured reasonably and appropriately. Currently, 10 administrative demand indicators, including population, area, number of businesses, number of automobiles, and number of civil complaints, are used to calculate the appropriate manpower of local governments. In addition, types are classified according to the size of local governments, and regression coefficients for each type are derived. This approach seems objective and rational. However, there is a practical problem that public officials should be reduced when administrative demand in local governments is decreasing. In addition, it was confirmed that there is a problem of statistically unstable and severe collinearity between indicators. Through this study, it was confirmed that there is a need for improvement in the existing model for calculating the workforce of local governments. In addition, it was suggested that changes in the method of deriving regression equations, discovery of new indicators, and new types are necessary.
