international experience on social guarantees
for civil servants
This research is conducted by the National Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service together with the Center for Adaptation of the Civil Service to the Standards of the European Union.
The purpose of this research is to review international experience and best practices and to determine the list, scope and specifics of social guarantees provided by the state to employees of the civil service, as well as the extent to which such guarantees differ from the basic guarantees provided to all citizens regardless of their place of work or service.
The results of this study will form the basis for other developments to be presented and discussed next year as part of a joint international event on social guarantees for civil servants.
Therefore, we invite you to join the study and fill in this questionnaire on the specifics of social guarantees for civil servants in your country by 18 October 2024.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your cooperation!

We expressed our highest esteem for you and formally requested your support in sharing experiences, knowledge, and relevant information related to social guarantees for civil servants.
As we emphasized earlier, enhancing international cooperation in civil service and public administration is critical for Ukraine's democratic progress and European integration. Strengthening mechanisms to adapt our civil service systems to European standards will significantly improve the state's capacity to ensure the economic and social well-being of its citizens. Our ongoing research on global practices for providing social guarantees to civil servants is a key part of this process. We aim to develop recommendations that will help enhance social protection measures in Ukraine by drawing from international approaches.
In light of the current negotiation process regarding Ukraine's European integration, the information you can provide is especially valuable. We would greatly appreciate your assistance in sharing details about the social guarantees for civil servants in your country. Specifically, we kindly remind you to complete the attached questionnaire (Annex 1), which aims to gather insights on the legal framework, types of social benefits, and analytical research related to social protections for civil servants. It is of great importance for us to get the completed questionnaire from you till October 18, 2024.
Your cooperation is vital to the success of our research. The information you provide will not only enhance our understanding of international best practices but also contribute to the development of effective strategies for supporting civil servants in Ukraine. Furthermore, this exchange of knowledge serves as an important step in deepening our institutional cooperation and advancing our shared goals in civil service reform and public administration modernization.

Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the National Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service and the Center for Adaptation of the Civil Service to the Standards of the European Union, we are pleased to express our highest esteem and formally request your support in sharing experiences, knowledge and relevant information.
We are convinced that enhancing international cooperation in the field of civil service and public administration is essential for democratic progress. Strengthening mechanisms for adapting civil service systems to European standards will help improve the ability of the state to ensure the economic and social well-being of its citizens. In this regard we are conducting comprehensive research on global practices of providing social guarantees to civil servants. Our aim is to develop recommendations that can help enhance social protection measures for civil servants in Ukraine by comparing international approaches.
In light of this, we kindly request your assistance in providing information regarding the social guarantees for civil servants in your country. Specifically, we would greatly appreciate details on the following:
- The legal framework governing social guarantees for civil servants: this includes relevant laws, regulations, and policies that define the scope and nature of social protections available to civil servants in your country. We are particularly interested in any recent legal reforms or legislative initiatives that aim to improve the social security system for government employees.
- Any analytical research, reports, or methodological guidelines: we would highly value access to studies or reports conducted by your institution or other authoritative bodies that evaluate the effectiveness of social guarantees for civil servants. Comparative analyses of social protection systems, policy impact assessments, and case studies of successful implementation would greatly enrich our research.
- Types of social benefits available to civil servants: detailed information regarding specific social benefits provided to civil servants in your country, such as pension schemes, healthcare services, unemployment benefits, maternity and family support, housing allowances, and any other forms of welfare provisions. We are also interested in understanding how these benefits are funded and managed, whether through governmental budgets, insurance systems, or other mechanisms.
- Other official sources on social protection for civil servants: this could include government publications, reports from international organizations, or any other relevant documentation that provides a comprehensive view of the social guarantees offered to civil servants in your country.
We have also prepared a questionnaire (Annex 1) to better understand the specifics of social guarantees for civil servants in your country. We would be grateful if you could complete it and return it by 18 October 2024.
We deeply appreciate your cooperation in this matter, as the information you provide is vital to the success of our research. Your insights will not only contribute to our understanding of international best practices but also aid us in formulating effective strategies to support civil servants in Ukraine. Moreover, we view this exchange of knowledge as an important step in fostering deeper cooperation between our institutions. We are confident that this collaboration will pave the way for further opportunities to strengthen our shared goals of advancing civil service reform and public administration modernization.
Should this request fall outside the purview of your institution, we would be most grateful if you could direct us to the relevant authorities or departments that may be able to assist.
For additional information you may contact the Center for Adaptation of the Civil Service to the Standards of the European Union (contact persons: Ms. Liudmyla Tyshchenko, tel.: (044) 278-36-44, e-mail: [email protected]).

Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the National Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service, we are pleased to express our highest esteem and formally request your support in sharing experiences, knowledge and relevant information.
Our common vision is to strengthen international cooperation in the field of civil service and public administration by enhancing mechanisms for adaptation to European standards. Civil service reform is essential for democratic progress, as it supports the state's ability to ensure the economic and social well-being of its citizens. Government policies aiming to bring the civil service in line with international standards emphasize the extension of social protection for civil servants, which helps to enhance the prestige of the profession. By comparing international approaches, we can develop effective recommendations for improving the national civil service system and its social protection measures.
For this purpose, the National Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service in cooperation with the Center for Adaptation of the Civil Service to the Standards of the European Union, is carrying out a comprehensive research of the global practice of providing social guarantees to civil servants. We would kindly like to request your assistance in sharing information regarding: the legal framework covering social guarantees for civil servants; the possible analytical researches and research reports; any methodological guidelines; the relevant publications; other official sources on social protection for civil servants in your country.
To facilitate our research, we have prepared a questionnaire (Annex 1) on the specifics of social guarantees for civil servants in your country. We would be very grateful if you could complete and return it till 18 October 2024.
If this question is beyond the competence of your institution, we ask you to provide the relevant contacts or refer us to the relevant authorities in charge of civil service and civil servants' social protection in your country.
We are extremely grateful for any information you can provide and look forward to the possibility of future cooperation between our institutions.
