Workforce Representation in Organizations

Article Image

Organizations often have a need to know whether the make up of their workforce reflects the population of potential candidates in order to provide an indicator that fair hiring and promotion practices are in place. This is best accomplished by carrying out a comparison of the work force on key characteristics (e.g. race/ethnicity) with the population from which that workforce is drawn and/or with similarly situated organizations.

Each year since 1975, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Force Management Policy) has reported on the population representation of the military services to Congress. HumRRO has prepared this document since the Fiscal Year 1989 report.

The report provides demographic characteristics of active duty applicants, active and reserve enlisted accessions and members, and active and reserve officer accessions and officer corps. Demographics include: age, race/ethnicity, gender, marital status, education, AFQT category, geography, and socioeconomic status.
