Yeah, so if the Dept of Health decides to skip next years order of flu vaccines and eliminates all prenatal care for welfare baby-factories, they can pocket some nice "bonus" money.
I thought "skimming" from the till was considered a no-no?
It's a logical idea of rewarding a success, but we're dealing with GOVERNMENT employees, and "logical" would never enter into the equation for them.
Maybe kind of reverse the idea.
Instead of a bonus from the remainder of a budget not spent, how about penalizing them for recentile incriments above a certain level.
Say if they spend only 50% of the budget LEGALLY, not just cutting blindly, then they don't lose anything.
If they spend 60% they lose 5% of next years budget, or 1% of their
salary.
If they spend 70%, they lose 10% of the budget or 2% of their salary, and so on and so on.....!
Since positive incentives in government workplaces is like giving a trophy to the guy that made the trophy.
Maybe negative incentives would be more effective, like sticking the dogs nose in his indoor accident.
