Public sector employees take the risk of being fired by an administration who decides that unit isn't a priority. Salary levels do determine risk - if you want someone to do a riskier job, you generally have to pay more - obviously there are a large number of other factors. |

They mostly don't, both because the Administration has limited legal and even more limited practical political ability to do that, and because civil service rules further mitigate that risk with noncompetitive reinstatement eligibility.
They do take the risk that the political branches together decide a function is unnecessary, mitigated somewhat by civil service reinstatement rules.
