Reintegration satisfaction among CF reservists / by Tara L. Holton ... [et al.].: D68-6/023-2013E-PDF

This study sought to assess the post-deployment reintegration experiences of Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Reservists who had deployed as a part of a recent task force participating in Operation ATHENA. Reservists completed a short survey approximately six to eight months post-deployment. One aspect of the survey, the focus of the current research, asked Reservists to indicate their level of satisfaction with their post-deployment reintegration experience, and factors impacting on this experience. On average, Reservists indicated that they were “neither satisfied nor dissatisfied/neutral” with their post-deployment reintegration experience. Of the 106 individuals responding to this question, close to 60% provided more detailed written information regarding the factors affecting their experience. This information was categorized according to the positive comments, negative comments, and recommendations provided with respect to (1) services and appointments necessary during the reintegration process, (2) employment following deployment, and (3) military support during reintegration. Preliminary recommendations designed to further enhance the post-deployment reintegration process for CAF Reservists are provided.
