Abstract
This thesis compares occupational trends in the civilian
and Navy Labor Markets. This is accomplished by matching
civilian occupations to Navy ratings with similar job
characteristics. The matched occupations are categorized
according to technical level and skill level. These
categories are used to compare trends in occupational
participation and earnings. The results of the analysis
support the conclusion that competition for highly technical
and skilled workers between the Navy and civilian work force
is increasing. It is recommended that the Navy continue to
emphasize highly technical and skilled occupations when
allocating reenlistment bonuses. It is also recommended that
further research be conducted on the inclusion of occupational
variables in regression models that predict reenlistment rates.
