Key take-aways:
Reservists bring unique value to organizations. During this session, it became clear that combining a civilian job with a role as a reservist not only makes a social contribution, but also provides personal and professional growth. Employers can benefit from this by properly aligning policies and communications.
Highlights:
- Reservists strengthen organizations with skills such as leadership, stress resistance and flexibility.
- Voluntary but not non-committal: an average of ten deployment days per year and an active contribution in addition to the civilian job.
- Clear agreements and open communication are crucial to ensure employability and work-life balance.
- Employer branding: reservists contribute to a positive image and community involvement.
Reservist policies require customization, but offer great opportunities for organizations that want to invest in talent and resilience.
