What you need to know
Any Reservist or ex-Regular with the relevant skills and experience required for the role is eligible.
To provide part-time working for Reservists on binding, enduring commitments.
Additional Duties Commitment (ADC) enables Reservists to undertake military duties on a part-time basis (i.e. less than full time and compatible with any civilian part-time job you may have). It is a formal arrangement where you commit to serve for a specified number of days or part days, agreed in advance with your employing unit, up to a maximum of 180 days, including leave, in any 12-month period. Your annual leave allocation is based on the number of days that you work.
Pay is at a daily rate, plus 5% X-Factor. Whilst there is no allowance package, if there is spare accommodation, you may be able to use it, paying appropriate charges.
If you have served before and have a military pension, some of this may be abated (reduced) so that your total income when you take up the role (i.e. pension plus salary) does not exceed your last Regular salary plus inflation.
If you received Early Departure Payments (EDP) as part of one of the Armed Forces Pension Schemes, Treasury rules require that these stop and, depending on how long you have been out of service, all or some of the EDP lump sum may have to be repaid.
