When should a commander brief the next higher command after completing a survey?

A commander is required to brief the next higher command no later than 30 days after completing a survey. This timeline is crucial for ensuring that findings and insights from the survey are communicated promptly, enabling higher command to make informed decisions and take necessary actions based on the survey results. Timely communication fosters transparency, accountability, and effective follow-through on issues that may affect unit morale and cohesion.

Delaying the briefing beyond this period could result in a lack of effective response to the issues identified in the survey, which could hinder the unit's operations and overall mission readiness. It is essential to adhere to this timeframe to maintain a proactive approach to equal opportunity matters within the Army.
