Managing the Master Military Pay Account: Who is Responsible?

Abstract

Money is a major motivator to Marines and immeasurably contributes to productivity. Conversely, when a Marine's pay is "all jacked up," the emotional impact is equally, yet negatively, immeasurable. Institutionally, Marines are quick to blame the administrative process for their woes and take little time to evaluate their own actions. Proper management of the master military pay accounts (MMPA) requires diligent attention from the three parties involved. Marines, leaders, and support agencies must act proactively and jointly to foster the process and minimize errors.
