Abstract

This paper examines the fragmented and informalised system of salary supplements in the Congolese civil service, analysing their drivers, their distribution across ministries and their impact on governance. Based on extensive fieldwork, it shows how these supplements shape the political economy of remuneration and the internal dynamics of the public bureaucracy.
