Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the views of civil servants on the announcement of salary increases and the increase in debt of civil servants. A questionnaire was conducted among civil servants in selected government agencies. A total of 82 respondents out of 140 civil servants answered this questionnaire. The findings of the study showed that civil servants said NO to increasing debt in the event of a salary increase. The results of this study are expected to provide a new perspective on civil servants when it comes to the issue of salary increases and debt increases.
