What does it mean to be a public servant, and what is the difference between it and a civil servant?

Participating in the public service is a colloquial expression for political cadres and staff in various government units in our country. The full name is "management with reference to the Civil Servant Law". It refers to the management of units entrusted or authorized by the government with administrative law enforcement capabilities and personnel who are not civil servants with reference to the Civil Service Law. Personnel in public service units must be analyzed in detail. Staff who have passed the normal national examination are not civil servants in the strict sense, but they are fully managed as civil servants in terms of recruitment, promotion, assessment, retirement, etc.

There is a difference between civil servants and staff in public institutions with reference to civil servant management. Civil servants are administrative staff, while public servants and public institutions are public service staff. There is an essential difference in identity and nature between public service staff and administrative staff. Business staff need to pass an examination before they can be transferred to public-service units and civil service units, and civil servants and public-service workers can communicate with each other. Referring to the establishment of employees in civil servant management agencies and public institutions, it is a business establishment.

Extended information:

The emergence of public servants is mainly because some public institutions need to perform administrative functions under certain circumstances, but are not qualified to become administrative units, so the old The ancestors used their wisdom and introduced the name of public institutions managed with reference to the Civil Servant Law, and the personnel they recruited became so-called public servants.

Promotions, examination qualifications, etc. are all the same as civil servants, and civil servants can become public servants, and public servants can also directly become civil servants.

Article 106 of the Civil Servant Law of the People's Republic of China: Staff other than service personnel in public institutions authorized by laws and regulations to have public affairs management functions , and shall be managed with reference to this Law upon approval.

This is the origin of ginseng. Civil servants refer to staff members who perform public duties in accordance with the law, are included in the national administrative establishment, and have wages and benefits borne by the state finance.

From this point of view, civil servants and public servants only have different establishments. One is an administrative establishment and the other is a business establishment.

The other provisions of the Civil Servant Law include: the conditions, obligations and rights of civil servants, positions and levels, recruitment, assessment, appointment and removal of positions, promotions and demotions, rewards, punishments, training, exchanges and avoidance, wages, benefits and insurance. , resignation and dismissal, retirement, complaints and accusations, job appointment, legal responsibilities, by-laws, etc., including retirement, including exchange and transfer, etc. The treatment is the same.

In addition, all other laws and regulations governing civil servant management, such as "Relevant Provisions for Newly Recruited Civil Servants (Trial)", "Regulations on Punishment of Civil Servants of Administrative Agencies" and other civil servant management regulations, will have a sentence added to them. : Agencies (units) governed by the Civil Servant Law shall refer to these regulations when employing staff other than service personnel.

Public service personnel are not in the formal administrative establishment. According to the provisions of the Civil Servant Law, they are not real civil servants. The relevant policies on personnel appointment are still unclear, so the time of "transfer" will be slower than the administrative establishment. Civil servants encounter more resistance (most provinces such as Zhejiang Province and Guangdong Province can transfer to another position, a few provinces and regions only allow transfers to public institutions, and public participation cannot be transferred to administrative agencies), and other aspects and civil servants There is no difference (including management, salary, and post-retirement benefits, etc.).

The main differences from ordinary public service personnel: they can participate in civil servant exchanges, have non-leadership positions, and only have two deductions like civil servants. It can be seen that the official status is a special enterprise establishment status between the administrative establishment and the ordinary enterprise establishment.

1. In terms of institutional sequence, our country’s institutions are divided into: party organs (which are commonly referred to as party committee departments, including party committee offices, organization discipline propaganda and other major departments), government agencies ( That is, government departments such as government offices, human resources and social security bureaus, etc.), People's Congress organs, CPPCC organs, the two courts of law, democratic parties, and the Federation of Industry and Commerce. This is often referred to as the "seven categories of agencies." The democratic parties and the Federation of Industry and Commerce are administrative agencies, and their personnel are civil servants. This is a Chinese characteristic.

These seven types of agencies are all administrative agencies, which are commonly known as agencies. Their establishment types are administrative establishment and work attendance establishment (some units also have military transfer establishment), and the corresponding personnel are civil servants or agency workers ( usually the driver).

2. Public institutions generally refer to units that undertake and perform public service functions. Typical representatives are hospitals, schools, etc., which all use public institutions, and their personnel are called public service personnel. Some units will be responsible for public service management functions and administrative law enforcement functions (such as health law enforcement brigade, medical insurance management center, etc.) approved by reference to civil servant management, and their personnel are commonly referred to as public management personnel.

The essence of public service personnel is still public service personnel, and their service establishment type is still public service establishment, but they are managed with reference to civil servants. Civil servants must register as civil servants, and those who participate in the public service must also register as civil servants; civil servants undergo annual assessments, and those who participate in the public service also undergo annual assessments with reference to civil servants; civil servants implement sunshine wages, and the same applies to those who participate in the public service. And with reference to civil servants, the positions are designated as section clerks, deputy chief section clerks and other positions that can only be held by civil servants, and their salaries and benefits are consistent with those of civil servants at the same level.

After being managed by civil servants, there will be a big difference in salary compared with workers. This gap is also different in different units. It depends on how you operate it. There are also differences in staffing, which is mainly reflected in the difference in entry. The entry of public servants must be approved by the personnel department at or above the municipal level, while the county-level department can approve the entry of office workers, and the unit can decide to hire on its own. There is a difference in promotion. Public servants Generally, they take the cadre promotion route, while workers generally take the worker promotion route.
