When Prudential Financial committed to expanding its military spouse hiring initiative in El Paso, the looming question was always \u2013 what happens when the military spouse leaves Fort Bliss?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe already had a relocation program to go from one Prudential office to another, including an international office. We said, \u2018How do we leverage this program to build out our military spouse program?\u2019\u201d said Jim Beamesderfer, vice president of veterans initiatives at Prudential Financial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leveraging existing relocation policies already in place, military spouses began their careers at the office. And when their service member\u2019s PCS orders arrived, Prudential offered them the option to work as remote employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Military
One role that previously had modest levels of demand but is now critically important to managing through the COVID-19 pandemic is that of contact tracer. Military spouses looking for immediate employment that can often be done remotely may explore opportunities as remote contact tracers. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe whole idea was to allow them to continue to progress in their careers,\u201d Beamesderfer said. \u201cWe started doing this across a host of professional roles and we found great success. As we built those internal success stories we got more and more managers that said, \u2018Wow I would like to participate in this because I see the benefit.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hiring Our Heroes and Burning Glass, with support from Grow with Google and Google.org conducted a mixed-methods study of barriers to and opportunities for military spouse employment. This project, \u201cExamining Entrepreneurship, Remote Work, and Upskilling as Drivers for Economic Success for Military Spouses,\u201d focused on current challenges to full-time employment and entrepreneurship<\/a> faced by military spouses, and opportunities for economic mobility based on qualitative and quantitative data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We embarked on this research hoping to find what percentage of military spouses are willing to work remotely and identify efforts that may help to match military spouses with remote work opportunities in their fields. Here\u2019s what we found<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

41% Say Remote Work Is Their Ideal Work Situation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It isn\u2019t a surprise that military spouses are seeking flexible work situations and they aren\u2019t alone in their desire to cut out the daily commute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked to pick their ideal work situation, 41% chose \u201ca job that can be done remotely.\u201d In second place was \u201ca job that permits working from home some days of the week\u201d (22%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The survey responses contrast sharply with the actual work situations that military spouses say they have had in recent years. According to this research, 69% say their recent work situations included a job with set hours and a physical place to go and only 8% say this is  ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The preference for remote work among the general population is also high. In a 2019 survey about remote work, researchers found that 51% of onsite workers wanted to work remotely in the future. The research found that 43% of people who work remotely do so because they moved away from their work location, an event all-too-familiar to military families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remote Workforce Becomes the Norm<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

No one could have predicted the COVID-19 pandemic, its severity, or the resulting economic consequences when this research was conducted in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the most profound and far-reaching change brought about by the pandemic has been the rapid shift to remote work. Industries, employers, and workers who may have never truly imagined dissolution of the office environment are now comfortable working from their kitchen tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to this necessary shift, managers often argued against flexible work options citing productivity as their main concern. Yet, many have been pleasantly surprised at the levels of productivity that the U.S. workforce maintained from home during 2020. In fact, 88% of companies that responded to Hiring Our Heroes\u2019 COVID-19 survey reported that their employees\u2019 work quality was good or excellent since going remote as a result of the global pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remote work is the game-changer for military spouses, said Michou Bachelor, manager of employee referrals at LinkedIn and a military spouse during the 2020 Military Spouse Employment Summit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe pandemic has drastically changed the remote work landscape and shown that having a productive remote workforce could be the norm rather than the exception,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Increase Opportunities for Remote and Flexible Work<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

According to this research, there are substantial gaps between ideal work situations and current work situations. To address this, concerted efforts should be made to help match military spouses with remote work opportunities in their respective fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The research suggests that stakeholders create online platforms that enable committed employers to promote remote work opportunities in job postings. Aggregated nationwide, these platforms increase military spouses\u2019 abilities to secure remote roles and increase the pool of job candidates from which employers can recruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This platform may include virtual job fairs<\/a>, virtual job search coaching<\/a>, and awareness campaigns around careers that offer remote opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Hiring
To make remote work a viable option for you, explore resources and strategies that keep you connected, organized, and committed to your work-life boundaries.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In \u201cExamining Entrepreneurship, Remote Work, and Upskilling as Drivers for Economic Success for Military Spouses\u201d report<\/a>, military spouses can read about in-demand career fields that offer remote opportunities, including contact tracers. A contract tracer is a non-licensed public health professional that provides support to a health department during the COVID-19 pandemic. The contact tracer \u201cis responsible for reaching out to people (contact) who have been exposed to COVID-19 and providing health education and guidance to interrupt ongoing disease transmission,\u201d according to the Centers for Disease Control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the research outlines the need to help companies expand work opportunities in order to retain military spouses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beamesderfer said Prudential has a demonstrated model for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe idea that someone would want to come work for us and stay for a long period of time and be loyal back to their company is very appealing to hiring managers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remote work can offer flexibility in where or when you work, but it requires self-discipline, advance planning, and a healthy work-life balance. The Military Spouse Career Journey Roadmap<\/a>, which was created based on this research, provides resources to help you evaluate whether remote work is a viable option for you, find organizations that value your skills and contributions, and explore resources and strategies that keep you connected, organized, and committed to your work-life boundaries.<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
