Summary

As a competitive employer in the United States, the Department of Defense (DoD) strives to maintain benefits comparable to those of the public and private sector. DoD recently asked RAND to explore the greater use of extended leaves as part of the department's strategic human resource plan. The authors offer recommendations and observations on which extended leave programs would most benefit military officers as well as ideas on how to implement such programs.
