| Summary: | Corruption among public servants shows a worrying trend due to the existing tendency for public servants to abuse their positions to gain any kind of remuneration for self-interest. This study was carried out to identify the perception of selected public servants towards forms of corruption that often occur in the working environment in the public sector. A total of 502 respondents were involved in this study. A quantitative approach was used in this study and the study data was collected using questionnaires and descriptive analysis used to analyse forms of corruption that often occur in the working environment of public servants. This study shows that respondents are more likely to prescribe giving bribes that often occur in their work environment in financial and the provision of valuables. While most of the respondents did not consider giving bribes in the form of career advancement as a corrupt practice. This study shows that there is a need to strengthen the level of understanding of public servants concerning the forms of corruption that can occur to ensure public servants can understand and prevent engaging in corruption. |
