By signing this important pledge, EBC Group joins a growing network of organisations dedicated to ensuring that those who serve—or have served—are treated with fairness and respect in their civilian lives. We recognise the immense value, skills, and dedication that military personnel bring to the workforce, and we are proud to formalise our support.
The Armed Forces Covenant is a pledge made by organisations to honour and support the Armed Forces community. It commits businesses and public sector organisations to remove barriers and ensure that members of the Armed Forces community are treated fairly. This includes offering support in areas such as:
The Covenant bridges the gap between military service and civilian life, helping to create inclusive environments where military experience is valued.
For EBC Group, this is more than a signature—it's a reflection of our values. Our company is built on the foundation of trust, resilience, and innovation, qualities that align closely with the skills and experiences of Armed Forces personnel.
Here’s why signing the Covenant is important for us and the wider business community:
Veterans and reservists possess unique skill sets developed through rigorous training and operational experience. Their expertise in leadership, problem-solving, teamwork, and adaptability makes them valuable assets in any industry. At EBC Group, we recognise these qualities and are committed to creating opportunities where they can thrive.
In today’s dynamic work environment, fostering diversity and inclusion is key to driving success. By supporting the Armed Forces community, we aim to strengthen our workforce with diverse perspectives and experiences that contribute to innovation and growth.
We understand the unique challenges faced by families of serving personnel, from frequent relocations to deployments. Our pledge includes providing flexibility and support for employees whose loved ones serve in the military, ensuring they feel valued and supported.
Beyond employment, we are committed to engaging with local military charities and organisations to support service members and veterans. Whether through fundraising initiatives, volunteering, or sponsorships, EBC Group is dedicated to making a positive impact.
"Signing the Armed Forces Covenant is a proud moment for EBC Group. We deeply value the dedication and sacrifices made by our Armed Forces community, and this pledge reinforces our commitment to supporting them in every way we can. We’re excited to welcome more veterans, reservists, and military families into our organisation and to give back to those who have given so much."
EBC Group is honoured to stand alongside other businesses in pledging support for our Armed Forces. We encourage other organisations to consider how they too can contribute to this important cause.
