G4S has committed to providing at least 600 staff as members of the military reserve from 2017, making it one of the UK’s leading employers of Armed Forces Reservists. The Rt Hon Michael Fallon, MP, the Group CEO of G4S, Ashley Almanza, and General Sir Peter Wall, Chief of the General Staff, signed the G4S Armed Services Covenant.
Under the terms of the Covenant, G4S has also pledged to implement flexible working conditions for members of staff which will allow them to continue their training and be deployed on exercise when needed by the Ministry of Defence.
Ashley Almanza, G4S CEO said, “We are very proud to play our part in supporting Her Majesty’s Armed Forces and we are committed to being the leading employer of Armed Forces Reservists in the country, in support of the Government’s new strategy for introducing additional reserve forces.
