Dutch term or phrase: operationele inzet
This silly word causes me problems at times. Not quite sure how to interpret it here. Text concerns exceptions that are made in Dutch regulations for gender-specific occupations, in this case in the armed forces.

De tekst van artikel 1, sub i zal worden gewijzigd in: “beroepsactiviteiten bij het Korps Mariniers en bij de Onderzeedienst.” Als argumentatie hiervoor geldt dat het Korps Mariniers zeer zware eisen stelt aan de fysieke vermogens van kandidaten. De kans dat vrouwen voldoen aan de gestelde fysieke eisen is zo klein dat slechts een zeer gering aantal vrouwen door de selectie zou komen. Dit wordt bevestigd bij de keuring van vrouwen voor andere fysiek zware functies binnen de krijgsmacht. Het functioneren van een zeer gering aantal vrouwen binnen een eenheid, in combinatie met het feit dat bij de operationele omstandigheden elke vorm van privacy ontbreekt, kan leiden tot grote spanningen hetgeen de **operationele inzet** kan verstoren.

Explanation:
'inzetten' here means to employ, to use. I find it hard to find a direct translation. "Personeel inzetten" is to put people on the job.
So, if something "verstoort de operationele inzet", it means that it becomes more difficult to get people to do the job.
De "inzetbaarheid" means the possibility to have the military personnel cary out their work.
Sorry, not much of a help so far. A possible translation:
"It could hamper the operational functioning" - oooh, that sounds ugly, something like that. I hope English is your native language and you can construct a better sentence out of this.

combat operations


Explanation:
Sorry, ik was iets te snel.
Operationele inzet komt overeen met gevechtstaken, ofwel 'combat duties'. Een iets vrijere vertaling maar in deze context ook te gebruiken. Voor alle duidelijkheid: beide opties zijn m.i. mogelijk.

operational committment


Explanation:
I understand this sentence to mean that the problems women are faced with in working with the armed forces, can lead to tensions running high, which can distract from operational committment.
