For this reason and given the context of a global health workers crisis [ 20], the specific relationship between informal payments, motivation and retention of health workers needs to be urgently investigated.
The analysis of the perceived relationship between informal payments, and motivation and retention in the public health sector has yielded controversial and discordant results.
