我國推動公務人員考績丙等比例的政策衝突分析
李天申
《摘要》
長年以來，我國公務人員的考績制度未充分彰顯「汰劣」的功能，故考試院試圖修改《公務人員考績法》，明文規定具強制性的考績丙等比例來加以改善。然而，考試院在推動修法的過程中，丙等比例與淘汰條件都有「由嚴轉鬆」的趨勢，顯示來自於行政機關、立法院、司法體系的反彈強烈，發生政策衝突。本文透過文獻分析法，首先回顧我國推動公務人員考績甲等與丙等比例的歷程。繼而從「議題」、「各政府部門的反應」、「平面媒體與網路」等三個面向，探討推動考績丙等比例的政策衝突。之後，本文從關於丙等比例的各種不同意見中，歸結出三項核心的衝突，包括：利益、權力、選票。最後，本文主張考績制度需要改革以提升政府績效與公共利益，但對於是否要設定丙等比例，持保留的態度。

An Analysis of Policy Conflict in Reforming Taiwan’s Civil Service Performance Evaluation System by Setting a Grade C Ratio
Tian-Sheng Li
Abstract
Because the civil service performance evaluation system in Taiwan has been dysfunctional, the Examination Yuan is now attempting to amend the Civil Service Performance Evaluation Act by setting a mandatory ratio of Grade C. However, during the legislative process of the amendatory act, the strictness of relevant regulations continually declines, reflecting the emerging policy conflict among Examination Yuan, administrative agencies, the Legislature and the judicial branch of the government. The author uses document analysis to review the process of setting grade A and C quotas in attempts at reforming Taiwan’s civil service performance evaluation system. The author then analyzes the policy conflict in the reform on grade C ratio from three dimensions: (a) the issue, (b) response of public sectors, and (c) print media and Internet. Further, from various opinions about grade C, the author summarizes three core conflicts— interest, power and vote. Finally, this paper concludes that civil service performance evaluation system in Taiwan needs to be changed in order to improve government performance and public interest, but it does not strongly recommend setting a mandatory ratio of Grade C.
