This book was released on 2007 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress has repeatedly expressed concerns about the pace of military operations and 10 U.S.C. 487 requires that the Department of Defense (DOD) annually report on personnel tempo the time servicemembers spend away from home. Section 345 of the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 directed GAO to report on a number of Army and Marine Corps issues. For this report GAO addresses the extent to which (1) changes in mobilization and deployment policies have affected reserve component availability and provided an approach to meet the requirements for the global war on terrorism; and, (2) DOD, the Army, and the Marine Corps have collected, maintained, and reported complete and accurate personnel tempo data. To address these objectives, GAO analyzed data from DOD's Personnel Tempo and Contingency Tracking System databases, and interviewed agency officials.
Download or read book Personnel Tempo Definition Measurement and Effects on Retention Readiness and Quality of Life written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Cold War, military involvement in operations and training exercises has increased, while resources have declined. This situation can stress Service members, increasing personnel tempo, or PERSTEMPO, usually defined as "the number of days that Service members are away from their home station to perform their duties." This report clarifies definitions and measures of PERSTEMPO, summarizes research linking PERSTEMPO to retention, readiness, and quality of life, and presents the results of three analyses of existing Army data to identify effects of PERSTEMPO. Definitions of personnel tempo vary across Services, and are determined from self-reports and administrative records. Effects of PERSTEMPO have been inconsistent, and depend on individual and deployment characteristics. Results of data analyses indicate a modest relationship between PERSTEMPO and retention. At low levels, PERSTEMPO tends to increase retention; this positive relationship decreases at higher levels and may become negative. The analyses show inconsistent relationship between PERSTEMPO and self-assessed readiness. High levels of PERSTEMPO were associated with measures of family strain; relationships with financial factors and general satisfaction were negative, but quite weak. The analyses identified other variables regarding managing deployments that had substantial relationships with several measures of retention readiness and quality of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are U.S. forces doing too much? Arguably. Although the armed forces of the United States are meeting mission requirements while maintaining an acceptable level of readiness, indications are that under the current strategy, with existing forces postured and organized for high intensity conflict, the sustainment of both high levels of activity and high readiness will be difficult. Whether or not U.S. forces can continue to sustain the current level of effort is an open question. With either the addition of new global commitments, a reduction is available forces, or a decrease in funding, readiness may be jeopardy.
