NHS Employers is gathering the views of NHS organisations to form a response to the government's consultation on Supporting veterans' transition to civilian life through employment .

Your answers will be used to help support our response.

Question Title

Please explain.

Question Title

* 2. Do you agree that, for this relief, the government should follow the definition of ‘HM Armed Forces’ as all branches of Her Majesty’s Armed Forces and the Brigade of Gurkhas and ‘veterans’ as someone who has previously served in the Armed Forces?

Question Title

* 3. The government considers it appropriate to exclude reservists from the definition of a “qualifying veteran" for the purpose of this relief as many reservists already hold civilian employment.

Question Title

* 4. Do you agree that the government should define the qualifying length of service to be considered a veteran as anyone who has completed at least one day of basic training in HM Armed Forces?

Question Title

* 5. Do you agree that making this relief available for all veterans, regardless of when they left HM Armed Forces is the correct approach to maximise the opportunities available to veterans? If not, what approach would be preferable?
