La valutazione del personale non dirigente tra ottimizzazione della produttività ed efficienza della pubblica amministrazione

International economic Bodies and authoritative academic studies agree on identifying the Italian Public Sector as a formidable, unhatched vein of competitiveness. The growing attention to Public work’s productivity and to the State apparatus’ expense trend, which are all closely related elements to the entire Country’s competitiveness, are at the base of the recent Public Sector reform (d.lgs. 150/2009). The Italian Parliament, moved towards finding a concurrence of Public employment and private sector regulative assets, entrusting the role of strategic incentive for modernization to performance evaluation and measurement systems, both individual and organizational ones, so as to make the whole Public sector more efficient, on the whole. This research, carried out on the methodological level by integrating the legal approach with the analysis instruments offered by organizational sciences, starts from the analysis of the critical aspects of the performance measurement and evaluation systems of the public employees in central Administrations. The final result was that of moving from the centrality of individual performance to the supremacy of organizational performance; a change of perspective in the face of which the Reform still atones for an error in planning. The d.lgs. 150/2009, in fact, concentrates its efficiency around the “performance lever”, activated by the improvement of civil servants’ performance, and only marginally takes into consideration the opportunities offered, in terms of competitiveness recovery of the Public Sector, by activities of re-triggering of the Public apparatuses’ processes and restructuring. Finally, the critical analysis of the changes intervened on the context conditions at the basis of d.lgs. 150/2009, sets the right premises for the processing of de iure condendo perspectives on a new model of union liaisons.
