    (Mzumbe University, 2013) Mwaikambo, Kaisi A.
    The study focused on The Effects of Pension Mobility on Civil Servants in Tanzania, the case of Morogoro Municipality. Specific objectives of the study included: To find out the obstacles faced in pension mobility for civil servants in Tanzania; to determine factors contributing for the pension funds failure to operate to the best level to its employees; and to suggest credible measures to solve the problem in relation to civil servants pension mobility. The sample of the study was constituted by 52 respondents drawn from the population of 305. The methods of data collection that were used include: questionnaires, interview, observation and documentary review. The data collected were both primary and secondary. The data were analysed using both qualitative and quantitative methods of data analysis. The analysis process entailed introduction, organization, and interpretation. The findings unveiled three major factors hindering pension mobility for civil servants in Tanzania, namely institutional framework failure, lack of seminars, and poor planning system of the government. However, it was found out that the most affected group were the cadre of teachers, Hospital Doctors, and the mere police group. The study concluded that there were conflicts of interests, including selfinterest threats, ethical issues faced by officials and employees in public administration practice, no equal balance of gender in holding top administration posts and that whosoever changed the job suffered capital loss to their benefits. The study recommended that there should be a Municipality seminar(s) initiative in the public servants. Collaboratively designing and delivering of workshops, conferences and formal training, financial management should be strengthened to make it more transparent, the civil service systems should stablish open, fair and merit based principles and practices to minimize favoritism, abuse and waste of public resources.
