Last night the Defence Secretary recognised employers who have made
an outstanding commitment to support the Armed Forces, presenting gold
awards to the winners of the Armed Forces Covenant Employer
Recognition Scheme (ERS). These organisations later met the Prime
Minister during an evening of Armed Forces Covenant events at No.10
Downing Street.
The ERS was launched by the Prime Minister David Cameron in 2014 to
recognise businesses that are exemplary supporters of the Armed Forces
Covenant, a promise from the nation that those who serve or have served
in the Armed Forces, and their families, are treated fairly.
Businesses who hold ERS gold awards proactively advocate and support
the Armed Forces community, both internally to employees and externally
to the wider community. They have introduced HR policies to encourage the recruitment of Armed Forces
personnel,spouses and veterans, and enable reservists to fulfil their annual training and mobilisation.
This year the ERS gold awards focused on commitments to employ reservists, veterans, and Forces family
members. The winners included:
Atkins, The Automobile Association, Babcock, Fujitsu, Gateshead Council, Deloitte, Jaguar Land Rover,
Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, ISS UK, J.P. Morgan, M-EC Consulting Development
Engineers, National Express, PwC, Serco and Tesco.
Defence Secretary, Michael Fallon, said:
“The support from these organisations is making a real difference to our Armed Forces community. They
are ensuring that the men and women who have done and continue to do so much for our nation are
treated fairly.
Whether allowing reservists the time to train, providing jobs or supporting veterans and spouses, these
companies embody what the Armed Forces Covenant is about. I am delighted to thank them for their
unwavering support.’’
