吃空晌

phantom employees

近年来"吃空饷"现象频现,已成为侵蚀财政资金的"黑洞".河北、四川、河南、吉林四省已有10万余"吃空饷"者现形,其中不乏边上学边领钱的"娃娃官"."官仓鼠"顽症曝出不少编制管理之乱.

More than 100,000 "phantom employees" of provincial governments have been cleaned out of civil servant teams in Hebei, Sichuan, Henan and Jilin provinces since a national campaign was launched last year, requiring stricter measures to keep government teams clean and efficient, experts said.

自从去年发起一次全国范围的整治运动,河北、四川、河南、吉林四省已经有10万余吃空晌人员被清理出公务员队伍.专家表示,政府要保持廉洁高效需要采取更严厉的措施.

"吃空晌"的英文表达是being paid although they did not work,而"吃空晌人员"则被形象地表达为phantom employees.

吃空晌人员通常在政府或public institutes（事业单位）中占据职位,虽然不工作,但却能定期拿到薪水.Lack of effective supervision from higher authorities（上级机关缺乏监管）和light punishments after exposure（被发现后处罚太轻）是吃空晌屡禁不止的重要原因.
