주식백지신탁제의 실효성 인식과 인재 영입장벽 인식:신분에 따른 차이를 중심으로

초록

This study investigated the effect of perceived effectiveness of the public officials' blind trust system on the perceived barriers to talent recruitment, and whether this relationship is moderated by the respondent's status. To this end, an empirical analysis was conducted using raw data from the Korean Institute of Public Administration's ｢Survey on the Perception of Public Service Ethics｣. The analysis revealed a significant positive relationship, where a higher perception of the system's effectiveness was associated with a higher perception of it being a barrier to recruitment. Furthermore, a distinct moderating effect was found, indicating that the strength of this relationship varies according to the respondent's status. Specifically, the relationship was steepest among municipal-level public officials, signifying that their positive perception of the system's effectiveness sharply amplifies their concerns about recruitment barriers. In contrast, the general public showed the most gradual slope, while central government and provincial-level officials demonstrated a moderate relationship. These findings empirically support the concern that enhancing the perceived effectiveness of the blind trust system may have the unintended negative consequence of creating barriers to talent acquisition. Therefore, this study suggests an urgent need for institutional reforms that can effectively prevent conflicts of interest while minimizing obstacles to recruiting high-caliber talent from the private sector.
