Abstract:
Following my own experience, I consider that the topic of motivating employees in the public domain is
a controversial one, through the prism of the existing prejudices, myths and stereotypes regarding the activity of
people holding public positions. From the perspective of the people holding public management positions, who
are faced with the limitations and rigors imposed by the legislation in the field, having a limited range of action,
the smooth running of the activity and the creation of a pleasant working environment between employees,
relying only on the skills and personal experience, motivation is quite difficult. This article started from the
following questions: what behaviours were used by the managers within the structures of the Romanian Border
Police during the pandemic so that the level of motivation to remain the same? How effective were the measures
adopted to limit the spread of the Sars-Cov-2 virus, from the perspective of the staff observed and surveyed? To
find out the answer, we undertook a quantitative research on a sample of the Border Police personnel. As an
objective, we want to highlight the fact that, in the context of the pandemic created by the Covid-19 virus, the
surveyed employees were extremely in demand, and the behaviour of the managers was a prerequisite for
carrying out the daily activity in optimal and motivational conditions.
