To date, more than 5000 organisations have signed the Armed Forces Covenant including businesses and charities nationwide. The Chamber is also delighted to demonstrate our support for the Armed Forces Community by signing an Armed Forces Covenant. Chamber Military Network helps Chambers and their members undertake the signing of the Armed Forces Covenant and deliver their employment pledges as part of the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS).
Armed Forces Covenant Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS)
ERS enables employers to publicly declare their support for Defence personnel. The three-tier scheme of bronze, silver and gold awards encourages employers to support defence and the wider armed forces community by aligning their company values and providing a working environment that openly advocates support for employees from the service community. The awards enable the Ministry of Defence to publicly thank and honour organisations for their support. Find out more.
