Adequate Compensation for a Permanent Change of Station Move: A Study Comparing the Policies of the Military, Civil Service, and Private Sector.

Abstract

Military members, by virtue of the requirements of military service, are frequently required to move. The adequacy of compensation granted a military member for costs incurred during a permanent change of station transfer has been questioned. To determine whether or not this reimbursement is adequate, situation models of typical moves are developed. The constructive costs of these transfers are compared with the entitled reimbursements received by military members, Civil Service employees, and private sector employees. Comparisons among these groups indicate significant disparities. Recommendations are made to alleviate identified disparities between actual costs incurred and reimbursements granted for military members. The impact of each of these recommendations on the Department of Defense budget is developed. (Author)
