Download or read book Assessment of Combined Active reserve Recruiting Programs written by Richard J. Buddin and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the long-term effects of an experimental Army program that links active and reserve tours. The program, called the "2+2+4 recruiting option," allows new entrants to serve a two-year tour in the Active Component (AC), a two-year tour in a Selected Reserve Component (RC) unit, and then four years in the Individual Ready Reserve. RAND designed the new enlistment option and evaluated the program in a congressionally mandated, controlled experiment. An earlier study showed that the program expanded the market for high-quality enlistees and helped staff hard-to-fill Army occupations. This study shows that 2+2+4 participants are more likely to complete their AC tour and join a RC unit than are other high-quality recruits. Program participants had lower first-term attrition and reenlistment rates than other high-quality recruits, so the program increased the pool of soldiers separating from the AC and available to the RC. In addition, the RC affiliation rate was 80 percent for 2+2+4 participants, as compared with only 43 percent for other recruits. The study concludes that the program helps the AC achieve its recruiting objectives and that it channels trained, experienced personnel into the RC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents preliminary results on the long-term effects of an experimental Army program that links active and reserve tours. The program, called the 2+2+4 recruiting option, requires new entrants to serve two years in the active component (AC) followed by two years in a selected reserve component (RC) unit, and then four years in the Individual Ready Reserve. It is offered to high-quality recruits who serve in selected skills, and it provides Army College Fund benefits for post-service education to those participants who fulfill their reserve obligation. The 2+2+4 program serves dual purposes: It helps the AC attract high-quality personnel during difficult recruiting periods, and it channels trained, experienced personnel into the RC as they leave the AC. The RC relies on many such "prior-service" personnel, but the pool is shrinking as the AC drawdown continues. The 2+2+4 option was originally tested in a congressionally mandated, controlled experiment conducted from July 1989 through September 1990. Previous RAND analyses of the experiment showed that the program significantly increased high-quality enlistments into the AC and also increased enlistments into hard-to-fill occupations. However, longer term effects could not be estimated until the test cohort had completed active service. This study shows that 2+2+4 participants are more likely to complete their AC tour and join a RC unit than are other high-quality recruits. Program participants had lower first-term attrition and reenlistment rates than other high-quality recruits, so the program increased the pool of soldiers separating from the AC and available to the RC. In addition, the RC affiliation rate was 80 percent for the 2+2+4 participants, as compared with only 43 percent for other recruits. The study concludes that the program helps the AC achieve its recruiting objectives and that it channels trained, experienced personnel into the RC. (14 figures, 9 refs.).

Download or read book Enlisted Personnel Trends in the Selected Reserve 1986 1994 written by Sheila Nataraj Kirby and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1996 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume summarizes RAND/MR-681/2-OSD, which focuses on the time period since Operation Desert Storm/Shield, when reserve forces have been drawing down. Nevertheless, fiscal constraints are placing a high priority on using reserve forces wherever they can meet deployment dates and readiness criteria. Reserve forces are expected to play an important role in responding to regional crises, as well as in peacekeeping, peace enforcement, and humanitarian assistance operations. These roles and missions, combined with the downsizing of both the active and reserve forces, make it critical that the reserve be able to meet the manpower and readiness requirements called for in our national military strategy. This report focuses on the Selected Reserve enlisted force and its changing profile, set against the context of the military drawdown. In particular, it examines changes from FY89 through FY94, pointing to some potential areas of concern with respect to reserve manning in the future.

This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The USAir Force human capital management (HCM) system is not easily defined or mapped. It affects virtually every part of the Air Force because workforce policies, procedures, and processes impact all offices and organizations that include Airmen and responsibilities and relationships change regularly. To ensure the readiness of Airmen to fulfill the mission of the Air Force, strategic approaches are developed and issued through guidance and actions of the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Manpower, Personnel and Services and the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs. Strengthening US Air Force Human Capital Management assesses and strengthens the various U.S. Air Force initiatives and programs working to improve person-job match and human capital management in coordinated support of optimal mission capability. This report considers the opportunities and challenges associated with related interests and needs across the USAF HCM system as a whole, and makes recommendations to inform improvements to USAF personnel selection and classification and other critical system components across career trajectories. Strengthening US Air Force Human Capital Management offers the Air Force a strategic approach, across a connected HCM system, to develop 21st century human capital capabilities essential for the success of 21st century Airmen.

Book excerpt: The U.S. Navy wants to provide its shipbuilders with appropriate incentive to produce militarily effective vessels at minimum cost to the Navy. It can induce a shipbuilder to agree to any contractual arrangement by offering the shipbuilder a high enough price. But it is likely to be preferable, at least ex ante, for the Navy to dissipate risk external to its shipbuilder to pay less for the systems the Navy needs. The Navy uses external labor- and material-cost indexes to attempt to correct for significant cost risks outside its shipbuilders? control. Shipbuilder profits are greater when actual.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recruiting of the Nation's selected Reserves has changed since the draft ended in 1972. A steady decline in the numbers of Selected Army Reserve and Army National Guard recruits is increasing the gap between reserve troop requirements and strength. The Army's recruiting plans have been directed at overcoming these shortages. In addition, there has been a decline in recruit quality and an increase in turnover rates. The quality of non-prior-service recruits as defined by the Department of Defense (DOD) has also changed since the All-Volunteer Force replaced the draft. DOD has taken or is considering numerous actions to improve Selected Reserves recruiting such as increasing the number of full-time recruiters, increasing advertising funds, and introducing enlistment and reenlistment bonuses. In addition, there are several proposals and tests under way to attract new recruits and to reduce turnover. Many of the proposals and tests are directed towards the high quality male with no prior military service.
