Characterizing the Future Defense Workforce

Cover Image

By: Dina G. Levy, Harry J. Thie, Albert A. Robbert, Scott Naftel, Charles Cannon, Rudolph H. Ehrenberg, Matthew Gershwin

During the early 1990s, the Department of Defense (DoD) began to change its focus from the Cold War to pursue more diverse missions. Questions arose about how future changes in military missions, organizations, and technology would affect the nature of military work and the characteristics of the military and civilian members of the DoD workforce. To address these questions, RAND undertook an occupational-level analysis of the effects of the future environment on the characteristics of DoD work and workers.
