Forces Pension Society

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

The Forces Pension Society recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by:

• offering a unique service to members of the Armed Forces Community;
• promoting the fact that we are an armed forces-friendly organisation;
• seeking to support the employment of veterans young and old;
• seeking to support our employees who choose to be members of the Reserve forces, including by accommodating their training and deployment where possible;
• striving to support the employment of Service spouses and partners;
• endeavouring to offer a degree of flexibility in granting leave for Service spouses and partners before, during and after a partner’s deployment;
• offering support to our local cadet units, either in our local community or in local schools, where possible;
• aiming to actively participate in Armed Forces Day.

We will publicise these commitments through our external communications including our website, social media and regular publications setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.

About us

The Forces Pension Society is an independent, not for profit company that seeks to ensure the fair and equitable treatment of all members of the Armed Forces community concerning the payment and increase of pensions, retired pay, early departure payments, lump sums, gratuities, allowances, and benefits.  It does this by increasing awareness, education, and campaigning where appropriate.  Its principal service is providing guidance on the operation of the Armed Forces Pension Schemes to its members.
