Description: Rethinking Public Sector Compensation : What Ever Happened to the Public Interest?, Hardcover by Reilly, Thom, ISBN 0765630540, ISBN-13 9780765630544, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK Reilly (director, School of Social Work, San Diego State U.) examines how public sector employment has evolved in the United States and considers reforms that can be made to public sector compensation, focusing primarily on state and local government. Discussing the current issues of public sector compensation, he explores the ways in which compensation has been formulated in nontransparent discussions between politicians, management, and labor representatives and offers comparative analysis of public-versus-private-sector compensation for blue collar and white collar workers, with a particular emphasis on pensions. Finally, he concludes with recommendations for reform, urging transparency in negotiations, the institution of citizen control of collective bargaining on behalf of the public employer, promotion of defined contribution plans rather than defined benefit plans, emphasis on performance over seniority in determining compensation, and a ban on public employee strikes under any circumstances.
