Summary/Abstract: Romania`s integration process to the European structures after its` adhesion to the EU in 2007 requires a redefinition of the public sector salary system in the near future, so that public servants become more motivated and public money be used more efficiently. Creating and implementing a new salary system has been a high priority for decision-makers ever since 2004. Thus, the Strategy for public administration reform, adopted in 2004, set as an important task „Creating and implementing an unitary salary system for public servants”. Our study is aimed at providing a critical analysis of the measures undertaken to develop and implement such a salary system, in order to formulate a set of proposals. The paper uses several scenarios regarding the average wage evolution in the public administration in the near future.
