Non-Partisanship

Non-partisanship is an essential foundational value for civil servants because it ensures that public officials serve the public interest, rather than any specific political party or ideology. Civil servants are expected to remain neutral and work for the benefit of all citizens, regardless of their political beliefs.

Non-partisanship promotes the independence and integrity of civil servants. It ensures that their decisions and actions are not influenced by political pressure or bias and that they are guided by principles of fairness, impartiality, and the rule of law.

Non-partisanship also helps to maintain the credibility and trustworthiness of civil servants. By remaining neutral and non-partisan, civil servants can avoid conflicts of interest and act in the best interest of the public. This helps to build public trust and confidence in the government and its institutions.

Furthermore, non-partisanship promotes continuity and stability in government. It ensures that public officials remain in their positions regardless of changes in political leadership, ensuring the consistent and effective delivery of public services.
