SUBJ/2002 NAVY EQUAL OPPORTUNITY SEXUAL HARASSMENT (NEOSH) SURVEY//
 
RMKS/1.  SINCE 1989, THE NAVY HAS PERIODICALLY ASSESSED THE
ATTITUDES AND CONCERNS OF ITS PERSONNEL THROUGH THE NAVY EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY/SEXUAL HARASSMENT (NEOSH) SURVEY.  THE 2002 SURVEY WILL
BE SENT TO SELECTED PARTICIPANTS IN APRIL.
 
2.  AS WE CONTINUE TO FIGHT AND WIN THE WAR ON TERRORISM, IT IS
ESSENTIAL THAT WE ALSO CONTINUE TO PROACTIVELY PROMOTE A POSITIVE
CLIMATE WHERE ALL NAVY PERSONNEL ARE PROVIDED AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
TO GROW AND DEVELOP, BOTH PROFESSIONALLY AND PERSONALLY.  PAST NEOSH
SURVEYS HAVE INDICATED WE HAVE MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS IN THIS
AREA, AND THE "PERIODIC CHECKUP" PROVIDED BY THIS SURVEY ALLOWS NAVY
LEADERS TO ASSESS AND TAKE ACTION TO CONTINUE THIS SUCCESSFUL TREND.
 
3.  THE 2002 NEOSH SURVEY WILL BE SENT TO A RANDOM SAMPLE OF ABOUT
15,000 OFFICERS AND ENLISTED PERSONNEL.  TO ENSURE THE DATA WE
RECEIVE ARE VALID, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL SAILORS WHO RECEIVE
SURVEYS COMPLETE AND RETURN THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  THE NUMBER OF
SURVEY QUESTIONS HAS BEEN DECREASED BY ONE-THIRD TO REDUCE THE
AMOUNT OF TIME REQUIRED TO COMPLETE IT.
 
4.  QUESTIONS REGARDING THE NEOSH SURVEY SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO NAVY
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY OFFICE, PERS-00H, AT (901) 874-4271/DSN 882 OR
E-MAIL:  P00H@PERSNET.NAVY.MIL.  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS ALSO
AVAILABLE ON THE BUPERS WEBSITE AT WWW.PERSNET.NAVY.MIL/PERS00H.
