Supporting Employers in the Reserve Operational Forces Era: Appendixes

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) asked the RAND National Defense Research Institute to study the effects that using the Reserve Components (RCs) as an operational force can have on employers. The study involved the review and analysis of existing research and data related to the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) (Pub. L. 103- 353, 1994) and the effects that employee absences more generally have on employers, focus groups with employers, interviews with RC chiefs, and a legal and legislative history review of USERRA. Study findings are presented in Gates et al., 2013. This document consists of technical appendixes that provide detailed information on the underlying analyses we conducted to develop the findings in the main report. The more-detailed information contained in these appendixes will be of interest to policymakers in DoD and the U.S. Department of Labor who are interested in specific issues or in the underlying methodology used by the research team. It will also be of interest to researchers.
