摘要

工业行动代表了雇主和雇员之间未解决冲突的高潮,并对高等教育的质量保证产生了毁灭性的影响。肯尼亚公立大学的罢工管理一直以传统的自上而下的方法为基础,这进一步破坏了执行大学可持续发展任务所急需的人力和社会资本的质量。这项研究的结果表明,罢工行动的主要原因是薪酬低,以及大学和其他公务员部门员工内部和之间的令人反感的差距——尽管资格和执行能力不同。这就要求在获得资格和胜任规定任务的能力的基础上,对整个公务员制度的薪酬和工作人员安置进行彻底的合理化和改组。整体而言,一个以人为本的激励管理制度,是预防罢工和加强质素保证的重要基础。

Academic staff perspectives on operating beyond industrial actions for sustainable quality assurance in public universities in Kenya
Industrial actions represent the climax of unresolved conflicts between employers and employees, and have devastating implications on quality assurance in higher education. Management of strikes in public universities in Kenya has been based on a conventional top-down approach which further undermines the greatly needed quality of human and social capital that is responsible for implementing the university mandate towards sustainable development. Results of this study show that the main causes of industrial actions are poor remuneration and offending disparities within and between employee grades in university and other civil service offices – qualifications and the ability to perform, notwithstanding. This calls for radical rationalisation and restructuring of remunerations and staff placement in the entire civil service, based on a combination of earned qualification and competence for prescribed tasks. Overall, a synergistic and people-centred motivational management system stands out as being a critical basis for strike prevention and enhanced quality assurance.
