New research from RAND Corp. finds that after leaving the service, many veterans earn less money than they did while in active duty.

The report, , uses data from more than one million records from the armed forces from 2002 to 2020.

Among the questions the authors address are:

• which military occupations are associated with higher rates of employment and higher earnings after service;
• what individual characteristics of service members are associated with labor market success; and
• how does service members’ income after service compare with their active-duty income?

The authors say their findings emphasize the importance of helping service members build marketable skills and supporting their transitions into the civilian workforce.

The report is available .
