DEA를 활용한 공무원의 감원대상 및 감원직급 결정에 관한 연구

[Purpose] The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate staffing levels of public officials in public institutions using DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) to see if the workforce is efficiently allocated according to the workload, and to use these results to decide on the target and level of staff reductions. [Methodology]In the DEA analysis, each DMU is a department, and the input factors are the current number of employees in the department. In order to analyze the priority among the 13 output factors, a survey is conducted on 38 employees with 10 years or more of service in each department, and 10 output factors are determined. In additional analysis, in order to determine the rank of reduction, the ranks within the department are divided into grade 5 and grade 6 or lower, and a DEA analysis by level is conducted to determine which level in the department to be reduced. [Findings]As a result of the DEA analysis, 3 people in the support department and 9 people in the execution department were determined as DMUs to be reduced. Further analysis to determine the rank of officials to be reduced identified two individuals at grade 5 and ten individuals at grade 6 and below. [Implications]However, this study has limitations in that it did not consider the experience and capabilities of the personnel assigned to each department in terms of input factors, and only used 10 out of 13 output factors for analysis, so it was limited to quantitative analysis and did not reflect the importance or urgency of the work, or strategic priorities. In addition, since DEA analysis is mainly based on quantitative data, qualitative factors were excluded, which may not sufficiently reflect the complex characteristics of the organization. Recognizing these limitations, it would be good to proceed with additional research in the future by considering the limitations of this study.
