Justice is between law and duty – on a quiet fire – 
Khalid Muhammad al -Baqir
The question of justice in wages and privileges between state employees is one of the most important challenges faced by governments in many countries. In the context of our country, this question is clearly obvious through the big gap between the salaries of sovereign ministries and other sectors such as education, health and the armed forces. The main imbalance is the lack of equality between institutions, which deprives many employees diligent of their rights.
Salaries discipline is the embodiment of a system that does not honor hard work, but rather improves excellence and disparity between individuals. When an employee of a sovereign ministry obtains astronomical wages, while other employees receive the “crumbs” of wages, the values of social justice which should prevail in each government system are ignored. This disparity not only leads to the resentment of the employees, but also the feelings of frustration and improves the feeling of negligence between citizens who seek hard to develop their country and their institutions.
The country must take this question seriously and discuss the effective means of correcting the path. This requires effective strategies to improve the public service and restore the balance between institutions. These strategies must include a complete examination of wages and benefits, so that each employee can obtain fair compensation in accordance with their efforts and contributions. It is not only a financial change, but rather a step towards the establishment of the values of justice and equality which must be a basic pillar in any government system which seeks to reach the public good.
Unemployment chaos and surplus employees in certain government institutions is part of this problem. Where we note that many of these employees do not carry out vital tasks that contribute to improving services, but they continue to take advantage of major financial advantages. This situation helps to deepen administrative corruption, as it creates an environment of irresponsibility and distinction between workers. Some groups are protected by unprofitable advantages, while others are deprived of recognition of their efforts.
If the country wishes to correct the way and strengthen the confidence between the citizens of its government system, these shortcomings must be committed effectively. The first step is to convince that justice is not only a slogan, but rather a serious practice that strengthens trust in government institutions. Consequently, the question requires a real commitment to the governments and institutions of the public service to separate the rights of duties and achieve a balance between what the various ministries offer and what employees enter.
Social justice and the improvement of the public service are not only objectives, but rather a necessity that we must seek to achieve effectively. This requires work to achieve a balance between the different state institutions, and to solve the problem of wages and advantages in a way that guarantees the dignity of each citizen and improves its aspirations towards a better future. Without this correction, confidence in government regimes will remain fragile and obstacles to economic and social development will continue to grow.
