The use of sanctions and rewards in the public sector (17th September 2008)
This report is a review of the use of sanctions and rewards based on academic research and an NAOsurvey of their use in central government. They undertook this to inform the debate on incentivising public sector performance. While many commentators discuss pubic sector performance, they have not systematically reviewed the use of sanctions for failure or rewards for success. The purpose of this report is to bring together the evidence on the effectiveness of sanctions and rewards, summarise the results of our survey on their use in central government, and to provide a practical guide on how to use them well.
