Issues such as risky health behaviors and chemical dependence raise productivity concerns as they do with all organizations, but they also have a profound impact on the safety and readiness of troops--and by extension, the military as a whole--in life-or-death situations.   Understanding Military Workforce Productivity cuts through the myths and misconceptions about the health and resilience of today's active-duty armed forces. This first-of-its-kind volume presents up-to-date findings across service branches in core health areas including illness and injury, alcohol and drug abuse, tobacco use, obesity, and mental health. The short- and long-term implications discussed relate to the quality of the lives of service members and their families, the quality and preparedness of the military as a workforce, and prevention and intervention efforts. The book:   Presents data from ten large-scale health behavior surveys sponsored by the Department of Defense. Offers background context for understanding health and behavioral health and productivity among service members. Introduces a health and behavioral health model of productivity loss in the armed forces. Compares key indicators of substance abuse, health, and mental health in military and civilian populations. Reviews approaches for improving military productivity. Identifies areas for further study.   Understanding Military Workforce Productivity offers a rare close-up of health issues in the services, making it an invaluable source of information for practitioners and researchers in mental health, substance abuse, health behaviors, and military behavioral health. 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010 607 $aUnited States 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 14$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 676 $a362.290883550941 676 $a610 676 $a613 676 $a614.44 700 $aBray$b Robert M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0312818 702 $aHourani$b Laurel L$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aWilliams$b Jason$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aLane$b Marian E$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMarsden$b Mary Ellen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300348003321 996 $aUnderstanding Military Workforce Productivity$92540412 997 $aUNINA
