Journal Title: Journal of Economic Research & Business Administration - Year 2023, Vol 144, Issue 2

Abstract

In the public administration system, a special role is played by civil servants’ activities in making effective decisions and forming a human-centric model of the state apparatus. The effectiveness of these activities is directly related to the social status of public service employees. This study considers legal, socioeconomic, cultural, and political aspects of the social position of public servants. The purpose is to identify criteria and factors related to the determination of the social status of public servants within the system of public relations. Based on the literature review, the criteria affecting the formation of the social status of this category of employees are systematized, and a consistent conceptual framework is generalized. According to this study, economic, legal, and professional factors constitute the ground for distinguishing the social position (or status) of public service employees. The public assessment, respect, and trust for public service employees are among those factors affecting the image and prestige of the public service system. The results of this research can be used for reforming the public service system, including the improvement of mechanisms for the social protection of public servants in Kazakhstan. The article may attract the interest of politicians, public service employees, and civil society representatives participating in modernizing the contemporary state apparatus.The study was funded by the Science Committee of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan (BR18574203)
