THE USE OF RATIONALIZATION IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR SYSTEM

Abstract

Abstract. The purpose оf the study is to identify existing obstacles and shortcomings of using rationalization in the public administration system, as well as to develop approaches to encourage employees to participate in inventive and rationalization activities. In domestic practice, there is a certain imperfection in the legal regulation of rationalization activities in the public administration system, in particular, this applies to such an object of intellectual property as rationalization proposals. This indicates the need to develop new approaches based on innovative practices. The main obstacles and problematic aspects of the implementation of rationalization in the mechanism of public administration are identified. Approaches to the possibilities of intensifying innovative and rationalization activities in Ukraine, based on foreign experience, the use of the most modern, innovative practices, incentives and motives for developers of innovations are proposed. The essence and role of rationalization and invention in the public administration system are considered. The main obstacles to the implementation of rationalization are identified (in particular, a long period of consideration of applications for patents, non-payment of fees for patent renewal, significant fees for inventions and utility models, non-use of many models and designs in practice, etc.) New approaches to encouraging rationalization based on the use of foreign experience, innovative practices such as «lowcost US patent laws», «microenterprise» status, and rapid examination of patent applications are proposed. In order to intensify rationalization and invention, it is recommended to use a special regime of taxation of income from intellectual property (IP-Box regime), and it is also stipulated that appropriate changes to domestic legislation should be made. In order to encourage authors to innovate, the author considers it expedient to use the experience of group rationalization in domestic practice, as well as the need to improve incentives and rewards for inventors, improve the ethics of innovation through the system of granting appropriate titles and certificates, etc.
