Navy-Wide Personnel (NPS) Survey 1998: Management Report
Abstract
This report summarizes the results of the 1998 Navy-wide Personnel Survey (NPS). The NPS has been conducted annually from 1990 to 1998 at the request of the Chief of Naval Personnel. The 1998 NPS examined the opinions of Sailors in a variety of areas including detailing, assignment, Quality of Life, organizational climate, job satisfaction, and health issues. The information from this survey is valuable to Navy leadership to assessing the impact of current and proposed personnel policies, procedures, and programs. Major findings from the 1998 NPS included the following: (1) most Sailors were satisfied with interactions with detailers; (2) most are satisfied with their job and work experiences however, satisfaction has declined from previous years; (3) over a third of the enlisted and half of the officers plan to stay until retirement; (4) satisfaction with leadership continues to decline; (5) greater numbers of Sailors report experiences with and support for gender integration; (6) Sailors were generally satisfied with Quality of Life programs ranging from education to housing; (7) most were satisfied with the quality and accessibility of Navy medical facilities, however, satisfaction with TRICARE continues to be very low.
