Armed Services Covenant – Gold Award
SAS UK is proud signatories of the Armed Forces Covenant. Since our initial signature on 16 march 2021, we quickly gained the Silver Award and then onto the Gold Award with a formal presentation earlier in 2023.
SAS’ commitment to the Covenant includes:
- free data science and artificial intelligence training
- significant discounts on learning and development products to build up data and analytics skills
- helps service leavers transfer their valuable skills to a career in analytics
- extension of 10 days’ extra paid leave for Reservists to Cadet Force adult volunteers for training obligations
- supportive human resources and talent acquisition policies to support its Reservists and Cadet Force volunteers
SAS had already committed to support the employment of veterans by working with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP), Forces Employment Charity and Forces Families Jobs (FFJ) to develop tailored employment pathways for service leavers. It guarantees a job interview for any veteran that meets the minimum role criteria. See more on our press release here.
