If you are a Malayali born and brought up in Kerala, chances are, you’ve already heard of Kerala PSC exams. The Kerala Public Public Service Commission exams are a gateway of hope to all those who desire to be government employees one day. Although private sector jobs have awesome benefits like flexible work schedules, a work-from-home model, and so on, what might be the reason behind this market for a government job? What makes a government job so desirable when compared to a private job? Today we will dive deeply into this topic and hopefully answer the questions mentioned above. 

Merits of a government job

It is common knowledge that the government sector has some of the most qualified people working for them, but the reason for that is not quite surprising. A few of their merits include the following:

Good Work-life Balance

A person employed in the government sector has more paid leaves and a leisurely life compared to a private sector employee. This is the reason a government employee can take more of a laid-back approach when compared to their counterparts in the private sector who have a much more hectic work environment. This, in turn, gives government employees more free time to spend with their family and loved ones.

Great Salary

It is no secret that one of the biggest motivations for anyone to enter the government job sector is the salary package. There is a great scope for career growth and excellent benefits like overtime pay and numerous casual leaves. All you have to do is pass the PSC exams and earn your place in a government office.

Social Status

This article is in no way an attempt to downgrade private jobs or glorify government jobs. However, It is often the case when both jobs are compared in the eyes of our society. We live in a society that gives much credit and appreciation to a public sector employee rather than one employed in the private sector. This causes a shift in the social status of both employees to the point they are disproportionate.

Job Security

The terms and conditions of most private employees dictate that they can be fired at will and is often in constant fear of it. In contrast, job security is supreme in the public sector. It is only in rare cases that a government employee is terminated without a well-justified reason.

Zero Experience Needed

Although difficult, the only real hurdle to overcome when securing a government job is to pass the KPSC exams. However, in the private sector, your qualification and years of experience determine your worth.

Pension Scheme, Pay Revisions, and other benefits

One of the defining differences between the two jobs is that government employees automatically qualify for a pension as soon as they complete a few years of service, meaning they get a steady stream of revenue even after retirement. In case they die during employment, the government ensures that a family member of the deceased person is employed according to their qualification.

In summary, although there are exceptionally well-paying private jobs with astonishing advantages, only the top percentile of qualified persons are selected for the role. Factors like this, coupled with all the reasons mentioned above, help the government job demand to stay very high.
