Manpower Forecasting:

Its Use In Policymaking



The manpower pool of scientists and engi-
neers constitutes an invaluable national re-
source. Government programs and policies
greatly influence their utilization. Manpower
statistics and forecasts are important as the
Government monitors the scientific and tech-
nological enterprise, but policymakers must
understand their limitations. GAO recom-
mends steps for the Office of Science and A - 7)/
Technology Policy to take in evaluating the
implications for scientists and engineers of
major Federal programs.

GAO also identifies factors needing further
exploration as the Government considers a
current manpower issue--the perceived short-
age of opportunities for young faculty re-
searchers in the 1980s.
