Management Advisory: The Military Services Should Fully Comply with DoD Requirements When Responding to Complaints Related to Harassment over Electronic Communications or Social Media (Report No. DODIG-2025-104)

This final management advisory provides the results of the DoD Office of Inspector General’s “Evaluation of the Military Services’ Response to Complaints Related to Harassment Over Electronic Communications or Social Media.” We previously provided copies of the draft management advisory and requested written comments on the recommendations. We considered management’s comments on the draft management advisory when preparing the final advisory. Based on the management comments received, we revised Recommendation 2 and added two additional recommendations. We also revised Recommendations 1 through 3 to add “justification” as an option. The management comments are included in this advisory. Additionally, based on exit conference discussions with Military Service officials we added Recommendation 5 for implementation by the Under Secretary of Defense for Personal and Readiness. This advisory includes five recommendations: one is unresolved, two are resolved and open, and two are closed.
