Remuneração variável no serviço público como fator de indução na melhoria do desempenho do servidor

The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of incentives linked to variable compensation programs on the performance of public servants. In this sense, we tried to identify studies that presented methods to correlate the performance with the adoption of incentive programs. It was noted that the literature is divergent as the association between the proportionate benefits and improving performance in the public sector. To contribute to the research and clarification of divergence, we developed an empirical model in order to measure the effects of programs on server performance. Further, tests were performed in a case study on the variable remuneration program applied to public servants in public schools in the state of São Paulo aiming to identify their impact on the performance of school principals and teachers. Since these servers are part of the education system, it was also tested whether the effects of the program directors and teachers have impact on the performance of their students.
