The aim of the survey was to assess the characteristics and quality of human resource management in the public administration, as well as to capture the attitudes, motivations, and experiences of public officials. In particular, the survey focused on the priority areas for reform identified by the Government of Guatemala and the World Bank. The data collected was used to support the World Bank’s diagnostic of key problem areas in the human resource management of the public administration in Guatemala. It was used to inform the design of institution-level interventions, as well as the new public policy framework.

Sampling
The sample frame used comes from the frame used for the Human Resources National Census. It has the list of positions in all the units of the 18 institutions selected for this study. The sample size for the managerial level was calculated with a 95% confidence level and a 5% margin error for each institution. For the non-managers, it was calculated with the same confidence level and margin error. The sample sizes are adjusted so the sample would have an even number for each study domain for the experiment which will assign a different questionnaire to half of the respondents.
Response rate was 96%.
