2017 Workplace and Equal Opportunity Survey of Active Duty Members

The 2017 Workplace and Equal Opportunity Survey of Active Duty Members (2017 WEOA) fulfills the Congressional mandate outlined in Title 10 USC §481 for a quadrennial survey to assess racial/ethnic relations in the military. The 2017 WEOA was the fourth active duty survey conducted to meet this statutory requirement. The survey was designed to assess self-reported experiences of and the climate surrounding racial/ethnic harassment and discrimination in the military. The Office for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ODEI; formerly the Office of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity [ODMEO]) enlisted the Office of People Analytics (OPA) to conduct the 2017 WEOA.
