Future Fit Group signs Armed Forces Covenant
Future Fit Group, a leading provider of health and fitness education, has signed the Armed Forces Covenant, pledging its commitment to support military personnel, veterans and their families. This initiative reflects the company’s dedication to offering fair employment and training opportunities to the armed forces community across all its subsidiaries, including Future Fit Training, Future Fit for Business, Biomechanics Education and iCareiMove.
The Covenant, created in 2000 by the Ministry of Defence, aims to ensure that those who serve or have served, and their families, are treated fairly. As signed by Future Fit Group Operations Director, Tom Godwin, the Covenant demonstrates the company’s ambition and commitment to be a fair and equitable employer and training provider to all. Future Fit’s pledge also includes providing special considerations such as flexible learning arrangements to accommodate service members’deployments and relocations, as well as offering discounted course access through the Defence Discount Service.
Tom Godwin, Group Operations Director at Future Fit Group, said: “We are proud to sign the Armed Forces Covenant and show our support for the important contributions made by those currently serving, veterans, reservists, and their families. By fostering an inclusive and supportive environment, we hope to further integrate the armed forces community into our workforce and culture.”
Through signing the Covenant, Future Fit Group commits to working with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP). The Ministry of Defence has partnered with Right Management, providing resettlement services for over 25 years and supporting Armed Forces leavers in transitioning to civilian life.
The company will also appoint an Armed Forces Champion to ensure continued support for military employees.
