Employment Opportunities for Family Members in Germany.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine current and projected employment opportunities for family members of military and Department of Defense civilians in Germany. The study concludes that (1) the family member hire program has expanded beyond its intent; (2) the demand for more jobs by family members living overseas will continue; (3) the Army could fill approximately 50 percent of the total civilian positions in Germany with locally available family members; (4) there are no international agreements which provide hiring preference to foreign nationals over US citizens, nor are there any agreements which specify the civilian work force in Germany must be comprised of any certain number of foreign nationals; (5) the employment of more family members and fewer foreign nationals would not create an unacceptable skills imbalance; and (6) management and supervisory personnel will most likely oppose further expansion of the family member hire programs.
