Abstract
|
:
|
Attracting and retaining high-quality personnel has long been a top priority for the U.S. armed forces. To do so, the military must compensate its servicemembers adequately or lose them to the private sector. Every four years, the Quadrennial Review of Military Compensation looks at the level and the structure of military compensation to enable each armed service to meet its manpower requirements. The authors here examine all forms of cash compensation, with particular attention being paid to the special and incentive pays of all the services. The authors found that, with few exceptions, rates of compensation across the services are remarkably similar, regardless of skill area, and if the services want to vary the experience mix and the career lengths of their personnel, a greater differentiation in military pays should be sought. 450-character abstract: Retaining high-quality personnel is a priority for the U.S. armed forces.
