As a Reservist the law protects you. The Reserve Forces (Safeguard of Employment) Act 1985 (SOE 85), provides protection of employment for those liable to be mobilised, and reinstatement for those returning from mobilised service. But as a Reservist you also have responsibilities - responsibilities to be open and honest with your employer about your status as a Reservist and to give them accurate information.
