Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change is a given in the United States military, but the soon to be applied “Blended Retirement System” is a financial change like no other the military has ever experienced. It is a huge deal that will not only affect the wallets of many active duty service members today and certainly 100% of them beginning in 2018, but it could also have a significant impact on future recruiting and retention of our volunteer military force. Mission Transition: Managing Your Career and Your Retirement is a needed introduction of the military’s new “Blended Retirement System,” representing the big shift in how the DoD manages military retirements. In the process, it encourages service members to adopt the new concept of retirement in the military, improve their own financial literacy, and assume responsibility for their own retirement planning. Finally, it provides new civilian job survival tips and strategies for service members in the process of leaving the military for civilian life. For those who are contemplating joining the armed forces and who wish to better understand the myriad of changes to the overall military retirement system this is the ideal guide.
Download or read book Blended Retirement System written by Jason F. Ninnemann and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The difficulty in retaining military medical professionals is not a new problem, but one that has been plaguing the military Services for decades. Issues range from having to endure difficult working conditions, time away from family and friends during deployments, pay, and retirement systems that can change over time. One of the greatest benefits, and one that helps retain many of these medical professionals is the promise of a military pension. Once an individual completes a twenty-year Service commitment, they are eligible to receive a pension for the rest of their life. Civilian employers try to entice military physicians away from the military with lucrative contracts and competing retirement plans; some think this will happen more-so as the military switches to a new Blended retirement system. This research paper will evaluate the financial differences between the current military retirement system and the new Blended retirement system which takes effect January of 2018. Three critical decision points in a military physicians career will be analyzed to determine the positives and negatives of the new system on financial benefit. Finally recommendations will be made on additional studies that can be conducted and proposed changes to the new system that could possibly increase retention."--Abstract.

Download or read book Rescuing Reserve Recruiting and Retention from the New Blended Retirement System written by Sheila W. Wilds and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The National Defense Authorization Act of 2016 created a new military retirement structure called the Blended Retirement System, transforming a legacy system that had remained largely unchanged for nearly 70 years. The new system is designed to ensure a greater percentage of service members leave with a portable retirement benefit by changing the vesting point from 20 to two years of service. While this may seem like a great concept for the active duty military services, attracting more young recruits who may not be interested in staying for a full career, the concern is that it will impact recruiting and retention efforts for the reserve components. This paper compares and contrasts the three different retirement systems that are now available as of 1 January 2018. It then analyzes recruiting and retention, both broadly for the United States Military and specifically for the Air Force Reserve. Finally, the paper recommends instituting a career milestone bonus (with multiple payout options) to help mitigate some of the expected effects of the new retirement system. It is important to note that all data in this paper is based on past research and models of years of service with respect to retirement. With the new Blended Retirement System in its infancy, the paper attempts to make an educated guess about what people might do but it is hard to predict human behavior and what might influence their decision calculus. It is certainly easier to identify the existence of a problem than its underlying causes. While this paper focuses on the Air Force Reserve, correlations can likely be tied to all of the Department of Defense's reserve components."--Abstract.
Download or read book Twenty Years of Service written by Brandon J. Archuleta and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military pension policies are as old as the republic itself and reside at the intersection of American social, economic, and defense policy. But as the nation’s social and economic circumstances underwent dramatic changes over the last half century, military pension policy remained static, stuck in the personnel and retirement model of the industrial age. This book examines why. Integrating policy history, theory, and practice, Twenty Years of Service provides the most comprehensive examination of US military pension policy in a generation. Brandon J. Archuleta sets the stage with an exploration of the rise, evolution, and transformation of the veterans’ policy subsystem from the American Revolution through World War II. The ensuing theoretical overview explains how the military personnel policy subsystem achieved the autonomy it enjoyed from 1948 to 2018; it also offers a new perspective on autonomous policy subsystems in general, which helps to account for the long-term pension policy stasis. In practical terms, Archuleta explores the role of the successful 2015 Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission as an institutional venue for policy change during the congressional budget battles of the 2010s. Through extensive archival research, illustrative case studies, and field interviews with Pentagon bureaucrats, congressional staffers, veterans’ lobbyists, defense scholars, and journalists, Twenty Years of Service brings the policymaking process to life. Its insights will prove invaluable to policy scholars and defense practitioners alike.

Download or read book The Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission s Blended Retirement Plan written by James Grefer and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the impact of the new military blended retirement system (BRS) on various U.S. Marine Corps force management objectives (FMOs). We estimated the effect of the retirement system changes on active component (AC) and reserve component (RC) force profiles and personnel costs and the financial impact on individual AC Marines. Our results depend on assumptions about personal discount, BRS opt-in, Thrift Savings Plan contribution, and return-on-investment rates. Our baseline estimates of the effects on FMOs use the assumptions in the Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission (MCRMC) final report. We tested the sensitivity of our estimates to changes in the MCRMC assumptions and found that enlisted force profiles change very little, while enlisted personnel cost-saving estimates are more varied. Estimates for AC officer FMOs are more sensitive to changes in the assumptions.

This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military has been continuously engaged in foreign conflicts for over two decades. The strains that these deployments, the associated increases in operational tempo, and the general challenges of military life affect not only service members but also the people who depend on them and who support them as they support the nation â€" their families. Family members provide support to service members while they serve or when they have difficulties; family problems can interfere with the ability of service members to deploy or remain in theater; and family members are central influences on whether members continue to serve. In addition, rising family diversity and complexity will likely increase the difficulty of creating military policies, programs and practices that adequately support families in the performance of military duties. Strengthening the Military Family Readiness System for a Changing American Society examines the challenges and opportunities facing military families and what is known about effective strategies for supporting and protecting military children and families, as well as lessons to be learned from these experiences. This report offers recommendations regarding what is needed to strengthen the support system for military families.
