PSP’s COVID-19 Operational Readiness Study for Regular Force members and Primary Reservists

July 17, 2020 – Defence Stories

Every Canadian is managing the challenges imposed by COVID-19 restrictions, and the CAF Community is no different. CAF members also have had to deal with additional unique stressors in supporting the response to the crisis.

Are you a Regular Force member or Primary Reservists?  If so, the Personnel Support Program (PSP) would like to learn from your experiences in order to better serve your needs during this challenging time.

PSP would like to know how COVID-19 is affecting your individual operational physical readiness. Are you accessing PSP online programming or maintaining operational fitness through other means?

PSP is looking for study volunteers to identify the impacts of isolation during COVID-19 on CAF Individual Operational Physical Readiness. Specifically, we are interested to learn the status of your physical fitness, nutrition, injury and sleep.

This study is geared towards Regular Force and Primary Reserve CAF members of all ages, fitness levels and work environments. This study requests a commitment of 10 to 24 minutes per 2-week period for as long as the COVID-19 restrictions continue, ending with the full return to work and use of PSP fitness facilities and services.
