We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Jobs 22 Ltd will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

We also pledge the following:

Promoting Jobs 22 as an Armed Forces friendly organisation by publicising this on our website and social media channels and reflecting their needs in our content strategy and campaigns; displaying the Armed Forces Covenant logo online and at our Head Office, and in visibly supporting Armed Forces Day, Reserves Day, the Poppy Appeal Day and Remembrance Day through internal communications to staff and external communications to participants. Supporting members of the Armed Forces Community to achieve and transition into meaningful employment as required at different stages of their life (e.g. upon leaving the Armed Forces) by supporting them on our employment and skills programmes developing and delivering tailored packages of support to their individual circumstances, and working closely with existing services such as the Career Transition Partnership and Armed Forces charities to advocate for tailored employment pathways for service leavers. Promoting members of the Armed Forces Community and the Armed Forces Covenant to employers through sharing information and evidence on the transferability of military skills and qualifications, creating and sharing good news stories, and promoting suitable individuals from the Armed Forces Community for specific vacancies. Supporting members of the Armed Forces to live healthy and balanced lives through our health and wellness services, identifying the support service leavers may need to transition into successful careers beyond the military, and connect them with specialist services to help on this journey. Ensuring flexibility for our employees who are part of the Armed Forces Community whether this be as Reservists or Military Spouses/family members to account for any impact to their employment, e.g. granting additional paid/unpaid leave, reasonable adjustments to account for deployments and training, and adapting our HR policies to reflect this commitment.

2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.
