Armed Forces Covenant

Natta has signed the Armed Forces Covenant to pledge and demonstrate our support to defence and the armed forces community. We recognise the value serving personnel, both regular and reservists, veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

As well as upholding the key principles of the Covenant, we will further demonstrate our commitment by:

• Promoting the fact that we are an armed forces-friendly organisation.
• Developing our internal military network further to create a supportive culture within the business towards the Armed Forces Community and a platform from which we can advocate internally.
• Seeking to support the employment of veterans young and old.
• Working with the Career Transition Partnership in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for Service Leavers, including the Wounded, Injured and Sick.
• Providing discounted construction training courses through our training provider in Farnham, CISTC.
• Actively seeking ex-military personnel to provide placements by advocating the benefits of recruiting military talent and supporting the Armed Forces.
• Supporting participating organisations with free mentoring, advice and training through our Construction Training Group – Surrey Training Group.
• Attending CTP and OA careers events and hosting insight days specifically for Veterans and Service Leavers.
• Supporting the employment of Service spouses and partners by offering a degree of flexibility in granting leave for Service spouses and partners before, during and after a partner’s deployment.
• Endeavouring to find alternative employment within the business in another location if they need to relocate to accompany their partner.
• Seeking to support our employees who choose to be members of the Reserve forces.
• Offering support to our local cadet units, either in our local community or in local schools, where possible.
• Aiming to actively support military charities and actively participate in Armed Forces Day and Armistice Day.
