Agents under Contract in the Territorial Public Service :
Can a Precarious Legal Status Become a Managerial Asset ?
The authors try to find the reasons underlying the following paradox : on one hand,
by passing a series of measures, public authorities attempt to reduce the number of
non-tenured agents, mainly because of their insecure legal status. They describe the
precariousness of agents under contract in the territorial civil service, both in terms of
their recruitment and career, and of their status, which is vague and incomplete. On the
other hand however, the state employer does nothing to modify existing rules and
regulations that allow for increased use of these agents, and thus does not seem to wish
to relinquish the controlled use of labour that serves the purpose of being an adjustment
variable. On the basis of a study of human resource management in a medium-sized
commune, the authors show that the selfish interests which, due to their status, dominate
the individual strategies of employees on short-term contracts, can serve the collective
interest of greater efficiency in the human resource management of territorial staff. From
the point of view of public managers, despite its present imperfections, the legal regime
of agents under contract in fact allows for a flexibility of management advantageous to
administrative reform, in the sense that agents are given more responsibility, competencies are more easily and quickly detected, and salaries better managed. From the
agents’point of view, those on an administrative level at least, a certain number of
advantages to some extent make up for the precariousness of their status, in particular the
negotiation of their salary in terms of their competencies. |
