BBC UK Army reservists to receive more benefits

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-23155942

Army reservists are to get military pensions and healthcare benefits as part of a bid to increase numbers, the defence secretary has announced.

Philip Hammond said they would also get increased remuneration, in a move designed to drive up reservist numbers from about 20,000 to 30,000 by 2018.

Meanwhile, small private sector firms employing part-time soldiers will get an extra £500 per month when they are on deployment and more notice will be given for deployments.

And companies that discriminate against staff who want to serve will be more open to action at employment tribunals.
