How a reservist can help

SaBRE provides Reservists and their employers with support in a number of areas, as well as carrying out activity to improve awareness and support for the Volunteer Reserve Forces.

The support SaBRE provides:

  • General advice to employers and Reservists.
  • Information on everything from a Reservist's training obligations to an employer's legal rights and responsibilities, and the benefits of employing Reservists.
  • Contacts for employers at a regional level who can help with specific enquiries.
  • Examples of good practice by supportive employers.
  • Awareness-raising events, such as seminars and Exercise EXECUTIVE STRETCH (a weekend team-building exercise for employers).
  • Lobbying on behalf of Reservists and their employers.
  • Raising employers' awareness of Reservists' skills and qualities, and the potential benefits of giving them civilian employment.

It is not the role of the SaBRE Campaign to develop policy or manage local casework in support of individual Reservists and their employers.
