Abstract

In each country, civil servants are identified as the labor force exercising the state power to manage social development, so their quality is often clearly defined with general requirements in line with the characteristics of the civil service and the specific ones of each industry. In Vietnam, the quality standards for civil servants are clearly defined in the Law on Cadres and Civil Servants in 2008, with general provisions applicable to all of them in the state apparatus. Based on this Law, all industries have their regulations on the quality of civil servants by their characteristics. In this study, we focus on analyzing the quality of professional civil servants in the Home Affairs sector according to its standards based on issued legal regulations, including Political quality, Professional qualifications, Working capacity, and Work results. In this study, a qualitative method is employed to collect secondary documents combined with a quantitative one to conduct a direct survey of 500 managers from the Departments of Home Affairs in 12 provinces representing three provinces of Vietnam.
