The Human Resources Management (HRM) of the Department of Defense (DoD) is a DoD Core Business Mission (CBM). HRM encompasses the complete life cycle of human resources functions and spans the operational spectrum of mobilized/demobilized, combat/combat support, benefits and morale support. HRM encompasses all activities that support DoD personnel and family members, throughout their careers and beyond, and that enable effective management of DoD personnel assets. It also includes providing trained, healthy and ready personnel to combat and combat support organizations and ensuring timely and accurate access to all applicable compensation and benefits for all DoD personnel.
The objective of the HRM CBM is to provide accurate human resources information: numbers, competencies (occupations, skills, education and training), reception accounting, individual readiness, patient accountability and status reporting, individuals’ unit and location, and assigned duty within organizations. This mission includes ensuring timely and accurate compensation and benefits for DoD personnel and their families and ensuring that Combatant Commanders have access to the timely and accurate data on personnel and their skill sets. HRM is comprised of 14 lines of business. They focus on the processes required to acquire, train, manage, pay and provide benefits to the military and civilian personnel in the DoD, as well as support family members, veterans, retirees, volunteers and contractors. |
