| Abstract: | Most of the state companies producing and distributing water and electricity in sub-Saharan Africa are being restructured. The authors examine the role of human resource management in restructuring programmes implemented in some 20 companies in the 1980s. Under budget stringency reducing the wage bill is required, entailing a trade-off between employment and wage levels, the choice having an effect on what we call productivity. |
