Book Synopsis Activation and the Earnings of Reservists by : David S. Loughran
Download or read book Activation and the Earnings of Reservists written by David S. Loughran and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activation imposes a variety of costs on reservists. Among those costs is a potential decline in earnings during the period of activation. In this study, RAND researchers compute how earnings change when a reservist is activated using administrative data on military and civilian earnings obtained from the Department of Defense (DOD) and teh Social Security Administration (SSA). The study employs a comprehensive measure of annual earnings and covers the experiences of virtually all reservists activated in support of the Global War on Terrorism through 2003. Contrary to conventional wisdom and DOD survey evidence, the RAND study indicates that, on average, the earnings of reservists increase substantially when activated. Moreover, earnings gains increase length of active duty servcie. Some reservists do experience an earnings loss when activated, but the probability of experiencing an earnings loss declines with length of active duty service. Even so, these large earnings gains may be insufficient to compensate reservists for the hardship of active duty.
Book Synopsis Early Results on Activations and the Earnings of Reservists by : Jacob Alex Klerman
Download or read book Early Results on Activations and the Earnings of Reservists written by Jacob Alex Klerman and published by Minnesota Historical Society. This book was released on 2005 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes research using a sample of Army and Air Force reservists activated in 2001 and 2002 for the Global War on Terrorism. It estimates the effect of activation on reservist earnings. The results on earnings and activation reported in this document are early and subject to a number of important caveats, but the estimates do imply less prevalent and severe earnings losses among activated reservists than do estimates derived from DoD survey data.
Book Synopsis How Do Earnings Change when Reservists are Activated? by : Francisco Martorell
Download or read book How Do Earnings Change when Reservists are Activated? written by Francisco Martorell and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the many hardships of military activation is the possibility of losing earnings, and though some research points to such a loss, other research suggests that reservists in fact earn substantially more when they are activated. The authors examine earnings reports from the 2004 and 2005 Status of Forces Survey of Reserve Component Members (SOFS-R) and those from administrative data--the Social Security Administration and military pay records.
Book Synopsis Military Personnel: Reserve Component Servicemembers on Average Earn More Income While Activated by : Brenda S. Farrell
Download or read book Military Personnel: Reserve Component Servicemembers on Average Earn More Income While Activated written by Brenda S. Farrell and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. As of Feb. 2009, approx. 691,000 reserve servicemembers have been activated in support of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, with many being called for multiple deployments or extended for more than one year. This increased use of the reserve component servicemembers has led to questions about whether reserve component servicemembers might be experiencing a decline in earnings as a result of extended and frequent activations. Studies determined that for calendar years 2004 and 2005, on avg., reserve component servicemembers earned more income while serving on active duty than they had earned as civilians before activation. Reserve component servicemembers had a net gain of $1,500/month in 2004 and 2005 after activation.

Book excerpt: Following the events of September 11th, the average days served by the part-time pilots of the Air Force Reserve doubled and, at times, tripled compared to the pre-September 11th rates. These part-time pilots in the Air Force Reserve often work for civilian airlines and earn some of the highest civilian incomes in the nation. Both Congress and the Department of Defense have expressed concerns that if activation causes income losses for activated members, these losses might lead some reservists to leave the reserves earlier than they otherwise would have and might also prevent some potential reservists from ever joining the reserves. This dissertation analyzes whether the increased activation of reserve pilots negatively affects their earnings and retention rates. The author uses information relevant to the dual-employment aspect of part-time, reserve pilots to develop a theoretical model for how an individual might behave when choosing between reserve activation time and civilian employment opportunities. The insights from this model provide the basis for two empirical analyses. The results of both analyses suggest that positive income and retention impacts are associated with increased activation service.

Book excerpt: Since September 2001, the Department of Defense (DOD) has relied heavily on the reserve component, primarily in support of ongoing contingency operations for the Global War on Terrorism, which is now known as the Overseas Contingency Operation. This increased use of the reserve component servicemembers has led to questions by Congress about whether reserve component servicemembers might be experiencing a decline in earnings as a result of extended and frequent activations. Our objectives for this review were to evaluate (1) whether DOD has determined if any differential exists between the income earned by reserve component servicemembers while performing active duty service and the civilian income they would otherwise have earned and (2) the extent to which any differential existing between the income earned by the activated reserve component servicemembers and that earned by civilians has affected attrition for reserve component servicemembers. Based on discussions with congressional staff, we are also providing, in enclosure III, examples of public and private sector supplemental compensation provided to activated reserve component servicemembers.

Book Synopsis Income Gains and Losses of Mobilized Reservists by :
Download or read book Income Gains and Losses of Mobilized Reservists written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little evidence exists on the extent of income losses or gains experienced by reservists when activated in support of a contingency. In the absence of individual data on civilian earnings, this study sought to identify those categories of reservists by civilian occupation and military pay grade that may have the largest expected income losses. The authors sought to determine if typical reservists in different civilian occupations tend to suffer income losses or experience income gains from being called to active duty. They accomplished this by comparing the median active duty military incomes of Reserve component members from a given civilian occupation with the median civilian earnings for all civilians in that occupation. Military income medians were computed for 597 groups of reservists representing over 48,000 reservists who served on active duty in 2003. The reservists were divided into 270 different civilian occupations and 4 military categories: officers with college bachelor's degrees, junior enlisted without bachelor's degrees, senior enlisted without bachelor's degrees, and senior enlisted with bachelor's degrees. DoD provided the military earnings, degree status, and self-reported civilian occupations. The earnings data allowed the authors to determine the amount of each reservist's military income not subject to federal taxation. They added the estimated tax advantage to military earnings so these earnings would be comparable with civilian pre-tax earnings. Civilian earnings medians by occupation and education for 2003 were computed using data from the 2000 Census and the March 2004 Current Population Survey. Median civilian earnings in most occupations were less than median military incomes while on active duty. Occupations with median earnings losses for officers included physicians and surgeons, lawyers, and dentists; occupations with losses for senior enlisted personnel with bachelor's degrees included engineers, managers, and other professionals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO conducted a survey of the impact of reserve mobilization in support of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm on selected reservists, focusing on: (1) problems encountered by reservists when called up for service; and (2) the impact of their experiences on their decision to stay in the reserves. GAO found that: (1) reservists indicated dissatisfaction with the uncertain length of their call-up period, the fact that not all members of their units had been activated, the dispersal of members to installations other than their planned mobilization station, and their assignment to jobs for which they had not been trained prior to arrival at their mobilization stations; (2) 11 of the 40 reservists interviewed complained of hardships in resolving affairs as a result of short notification times; (3) reservists complained of such poor conditions at duty stations as inadequate living quarters, lack of necessary equipment and special clothing, installation failure to adjust the hours of operations of key support offices and facilities to accommodate the reservists' work schedules, and lack of timeliness in receiving pay and travel reimbursements; (4) 20 of the 40 reservists reported experiencing some loss of income, whereas the military income of 11 reservists exceeded their civilian income, and the income for the other 9 remained about the same; (5) the amount of assistance civilian employers provided to their reservist employees, in terms of pay, health and life insurance, and other benefits, varied widely; (6) 11 of the 40 reservists said they would not reenlist; and (7) 31 of the 40 reservists indicated that the problems they encountered had a detrimental effect of their morale.
Book Synopsis The Effect of Military Service and Skill Transferability on the Civilian Earnings of Veterans by : Steven J. Petroff

This book was released on 1998-03-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyzes the effect of military service on the civilian earnings of veterans. It specifies and estimates log- earnings models to obtain the impact of (1) veterans status, (2) transferability of military-acquired skills, and (3) length of service. Data from the 1992 Reserve Components Survey was used to develop a matched comparison group analysis between veterans (reservists with between two and twenty years of active service) and nonveterans (reservists with less than two years of active service). The results indicate a small negative effect of veterans status on both male and female veterans' earnings. When examined separately by branch of service, male Army veterans suffered earnings penalties, male Navy veterans experienced no earnings differentials, and male Air Force and Marine Corps veterans received earnings premiums. Female Navy veterans suffered earnings penalties, with no differentials noted for female veterans of the other branches. Examining earnings by reserve component revealed that male Army Reserve, Army National Guard, Naval Reserve, and Air Force Reserve members received earnings penalties with no differentials noted for Air National Guard or Marine Corps Reserve veterans. Veterans of all services, with the exception of the Army benefited from having transferable military skills. Length of active duty service had no

Book excerpt: Four bills are pending in Congress to reduce the age at which reservists can begin to receive retirement benefits. This report provides input regarding these proposals and the broader issues surrounding reserve retirement reform. Although it is important to recognize that deferring some portion of compensation can be cost-effective, the results argue in favor of providing compensation on a current rather than a deferred basis.
