RAND Military Workplace Study
In early 2014, the Department of Defense Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office asked the RAND National Defense Research Institute to conduct an independent assessment of the rates of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and gender discrimination in the military. The resulting study, the RAND Military Workplace Study (RMWS), invited close to 560,000 U.S. service members to participate in a survey fielded in August and September of 2014, making it one of the largest surveys of its kind ever conducted for the Department of Defense (DoD).
