ArticlePublisher: Paris : IIAP, juil./sept. 1988Revue Française D'Administration Publique 47, p. 107-120Abstract: Local Government Service, employing the majority of local government personnel, is very distinct from the Civil Service. LGS has far more staff, which the extent of its duties readily explains. Further, it employs substantial numbers of unskilled, and a wide spectrum of skilled labourers. However, the greatest difference is that of legal status. Local authorities are independent to hire on a contract basis. However, the Local Government Act, other legislation as well as general agreements with unions and professional bodies place certain restrictions on their independence. These agreements cover hiring policy, working conditions and remunaration. LGS is currently experiencing grafual staff cuts and becoming politicised
