DECENTRALISED PAY SETTING: A STUDY OF THE OUTCOMES OF COLLECTIVE BARGAINING REFORM IN THE CIVIL SERVICE..

"In the early 1990s, Australia, Sweden and the UK dismantled the old centralised pay setting systems which set the pay of civil servants and adopted decentralised pay systems. Consequently, these systems are now being considered by many other European countries as they look to reform their own systems. Bender and Elliott analyse the outcomes of these pioneering reforms in all three countries and, in doing so, provide the most detailed analysis of the pay of civil servants in these three countries to date."--BOOK JACKET.
