Download or read book Perspectives on Reserve Attrition written by Glenda Y. Nogami and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports and analyzes results of the ARI Survey of Army National Guard/Army Reserve. Supervisors and peers of attritees were asked to rate 36 reasons for leaving the Reserves. Their responses provide information that may be useful in understanding the high turnover rates of Reserve personnel. However, we hypothesize that the survey items may reflect a smaller number of unobserved factors that include conflicts with civilian job or school, lack of leisure time, conflict with family responsibilities, dissatisfaction with Reserve duties, low pay and lack of promotion potential, and health problems. Factor analysis is used to test the factor structure hypothesis. Peer and supervisor responses are compared to identify differences in frequencies and in the factor structure. Because peers and supervisors were asked to rate separation motives for the same attritees, differences in responses between the two groups should be a function of variations in perceptions. Keywords: Morale, Army personnel.

Download or read book Reassessing Enlisted Reserve Attrition written by Sheila Nataraj Kirby and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Note examines the attrition behavior of nonprior service enlisted reservists who enlisted in the Selected Reserve during FY92-FY88. The main thesis of the Note is that attrition needs to be reassessed and redefined from a total force perspective to take into account returns to the reserve components and transfers into the active force, both of which are substantial. Both overall attrition and attrition to civilian life have been declining over time, but the high rates of turbulence need to be managed better to reduce their adverse impact on unit readiness. There are marked differences among components, with the two Air components having the lowest rates.
Download or read book Accession and Attrition of Prior service Reservists written by M. Susan Marquis and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Note documents a briefing about research on prior-service reservists that was designed to complement previous research about the behavior of non-prior-service reservists. The research investigates accession into the reserves among two groups of individuals with prior military service: (1) those who served on active duty in the Army, and (2) those who served in the Army Reserve or Army National Guard and left reserve service. The research then examines the attrition decision among persons from these two groups who do join (or rejoin) the Army Reserve or Army National Guard. It considers what prior-service personnel enter the reserves, when, why, and the match between their active and reserve occupational specialties. It also considers who leaves the reserves, when, why, and how attrition patterns differ by specialty. The results suggest that targeted recruiting may have more effect on attrition rates than do changes in compensation policies. However, affiliation bonuses appear to be an effective means of recruiting those leaving active service, and, at least for the Army Reserve, in decreasing attrition among those who receive a bonus.

Book excerpt: This report analyzes the separation decisions of prior-service reservists in the Army Reserve and the Army National Guard, the two components that recruit over 60 percent of all Selected Reserve prior-service accessions. The authors examine the effects of military compensation on attrition among prior-service reservists. They also investigate the ways separation patterns differ, depending on the personal characteristics of individuals. In successive sections, the report (1) reviews the conceptual model of attrition that guides the empirical work and specifies the hypotheses that are tested with the data; (2) discusses the data available for modeling attrition, and the methods of analysis; (3) describes the variation in length of service among prior-service enlistees as a function of selected characteristics; and (4) presents results from a multivariate analysis of attrition. The study suggests that the rate of military pay can significantly affect the length of service of prior-service personnel. However, demographic characteristics have a much larger influence on attrition than economic factors; targeted recruiting may be more effective in retaining personnel for longer terms than changing compensation policies.

Book excerpt: The attacks on September 11th, 2001 began the Global War on Terror and resulted in the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of reservists. These mobilizations are expected to continue at their current pace for the foreseeable future. This increase in workload for a part-time force structure must come at a cost. As more frequent and lengthy reserve obligations put stress on soldiers, families, and employers, these volunteers are being forced into a decision between service to nation and family/careers. Recognition of the potential effects on the reserves now will enable timely policy or force structure changes to ward off disaster and prepare the military forces for success when the nation needs them the most.
