Detailed Description
The overall goal of the Study for Employment Retention of Veterans (SERVe) study is to improve health and well-being of current and former service members employed in participating Oregon organizations. The SERVe Study seeks to do this by training supervisors to support veteran employees by focusing on a reduction in work-life stress while increasing supportive supervisor behavior.
The SERVe Study proposes that supervisor supportiveness can influence workplace experience, health, and well-being of service members, as well as of their families.
The investigators of the SERVe Study expect positive results for study participants, including reduced stress and increased social support, reduction in negative workplace experiences, and improvement in family well-being outcomes. Longer term, these effects are expected to create a more supportive work environment, which has positive effects on safety, health, well-being, family, and organizational outcomes.
Veteran participants are measured at baseline, three months, and nine months. Veteran spouses are invited to participate as well. Married and cohabitating veterans and their partners are invited to participate in the Daily Family Study (DFS), a 32-day daily diary survey after baseline and at six months.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Experimental: Supervisor Intervention
Supervisors in the intervention group will go through the Veteran Supervisor Supportiveness Training.
|
The family supportive supervisor behavior (FSSB) training intervention developed by Hammer and colleagues (2011) will be used as the basis for the development of the VSST intervention in the present study.
In addition, we will draw on critical elements of training provided by the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), information about potential mental and physical health effects of being in combat, and information to help reduce the stigma associated with returning veterans; in other words, "de-clinicalizing" their symptoms.
Furthermore, this intervention study falls under the more general rubric of soldier resilience, but more specifically addresses both veteran and family resilience upon return from combat.
The details of the training content will be researched and developed during the funded project period.
