After 1998, Hong Kong faced economic turmoil after being badly affected by the Asian Financial Crisis. It was also affected by New Public Management (NPM) reform ideologies and both the Hong Kong Government and civil servants consequently came under pressure from society to reform the civil service. The then Chief Executive, Tung Chee-hwa, announced the implementation of an "Enhanced Productivity Programme" in his Policy Address in 1998 to encourage the streamlining of government departments. In March 1999, a Consultation Document on Civil Service Reform was released. This programmes initiated radical changes to the civil service system. Civil service unions strongly protested against the programmes as they perceived them as threats which would affect their job security and the stability of the civil service. Staff relations in the civil service consequently became more conflictual. However, after a long period of adversarial relations, the largest civil service union, the Hong Kong Chinese Civil Servants' Association tried to transform its relationship with government from an oppositional strategy to a partnership strategy after 2000. Interestingly, these dynamic changes in staff relations are not uncommon in countries implementing NPM reform. United Kingdom has also shared a similar experience. 2 Their civil service unions have changed from a bargaining approach to a partnership strategy in the hope of a union renewal after years of reform and declining membership. A theory, "Strategic Choice Model" developed by Thomas A. Kochan and his colleagues in 1980s helps other scholars explain the transformation of staff relations in British civil service. According to this model, staff relations are shaped by the interactions between environmental forces and strategic choices adopted by different actors who are constrained by their values and particular historical and institutional context. To understand similar dynamic changes in staff relations in relation to the public sector reform in post-1997 Hong Kong, this model is used to analyse strategies of the Hong Kong Government and civil service union and factors affecting their decisions. A pilot survey was also conducted to study present participation of civil servants in unions and implications for the way forward for civil service unions in Hong Kong. 3 DOI: 10.5353/th_b3870196 Subjects: Industrial relations - China - Hong Kong Civil service reform - China - Hong Kong

Download or read book The Public Sector in Hong Kong Second Edition written by Ian Scott and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-21 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and analyses the role of the public sector in the often-charged political atmosphere of post-1997 Hong Kong. In this second edition, Ian Scott explores public sector accountability in terms of Hong Kong’s constitutional framework and the structure, functions, and personnel policies of its civil service system. He examines critical issues facing the administration of the public sector and the formulation and implementation of public policy with particular attention to the political challenges confronting the Hong Kong government over the past decade. A concluding chapter assesses how contested values in a changing political environment have affected the public sector in recent years. This edition has been fully updated to incorporate the latest statistics and research, including Scott’s work in such areas as integrity management, corruption prevention, and policing. This book is an essential resource for scholars and students of public administration and public policy in Hong Kong and more broadly for those who are interested in how a particular jurisdiction deals with common administrative problems such as centralisation, the role of statutory bodies, corruption prevention, and the redress of citizens’ grievances. ‘Professor Ian Scott’s book, The Public Sector in Hong Kong, now in a second much-expanded and up-to-date edition, offers a thorough and rigorous analysis of contemporary governance in Hong Kong, focusing on all the key stakeholders. The book is essential reading for government officials, politicians, journalists, academics, students, and the general public.’ —John P. Burns, The University of Hong Kong ‘The second edition not only updates the development in the public sector of Hong Kong, but also provides an important perspective to help readers understand the contexts that navigate its latest developments. This edition, along with Ian Scott’s earlier work, will be judged by many in the field to be among the best books on Hong Kong politics.’ —Hon S. Chan, City University of Hong Kong

Book The Dynamics of Social Movements in Hong Kong

This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of Hong Kong society have long focused one-sidedly upon economic prosperity and political stability. Contributors to this volume redress this imbalance by taking a critical view of Hong Kong's political development from the perspectives of social conflict and collective action. Instead of looking at Hong Kong from the top, this volume documents the active role played by local actors from below (political groups, student activists, trade unions, women groups, environmentalists, and community organizers) and their impact on social and political development in Hong Kong society in the context of political transition and democratization, economic restructuring, and an emergent local identity.
