Paygrade Structure and Flows into the 'Compressed' Ratings

Abstract

This research memorandum examines the billet authorizations on the Enlisted Billet File to gain some insight into paygrade distributions and how these distributions relate to promotion opportunity. Of particular interest were the compressed ratings that occur at the senior paygrades. Comparisons of promotion opportunities were made among ratings and between compressed and noncompressed rating groups. Keywords: Billets (personnel), Compensation, Enlisted personnel, Grade structure (personnel management), Indexes (ratios), Naval personnel, Policies, Promotion (advancement), Ratings, Salaries.
