Abstract
This paper surveys the turnover of staff in Operational Research groups. It suggest that surveys based on the membership of the Operational Research Society may be misleading as the majority of O.R. scientists do not belong to the Society. The paper gives data on the age range, length of service and qualifications of O.R. scientists in Industry, in Government and in Consulting.
