Sponsor employers are companies and organisations in our catchment areas who understand the value that Reserve Training can add to the workplace. Reserve employees they may have are supported in their commitment to the Army Reserve. .

Benefits to Employers

As the role of the Reserve Forces becomes ever more vital to the readiness and effectiveness of the Permanent Defence Forces, so their training assumes ever greater importance. The nature and extent of this training varies between different elements of the Reserve Forces and according to a Reservist's particular specialisation. While it invariably takes place outside normal working hours, there is also a degree of flexibility given by the Reserve for attendance requirements, to allow the individual to manage their professional and domestic commitments effectively.

 

What Reservist training does for employers?

Whatever branch of the Reserve Forces your employee is in, the training he or she receives will encourage resourcefulness, perseverance and improvisation, as well as loyalty, reliability and integrity. The quality of training they receive is what makes them effective, fully prepared members of the Reserve Forces and can be of direct relevance to the workplace. The more a Reservist can take advantage of training opportunities, the greater his or her potential to add real value in the workplace. Employers can contribute to this, by being flexible with Reserve employees, which will be both appreciated and rewarded through the enhanced transferable skills gained by their employee.

 

 

Reservists undertake training throughout the year. They learn skills that many organisations do not have money or time to provide. To request more information on the benefits of being a Sponsor Employer, click here .
