LIG is proud to announce that we have been awarded the Bronze Award under the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS), marking an important milestone in our ongoing commitment to supporting the UK’s Armed Forces community.
The ERS recognises employers who demonstrate commitment, understanding and active support for defence personnel, including those currently serving, veterans, reservists, Cadet Force Adult Volunteers, and the families who stand behind them. The scheme comprises three levels of recognition: Bronze, Silver and Gold, each reflecting increasing levels of advocacy and support.
Receiving the Bronze Award acknowledges LIG’s formal statement of intent to support defence personnel and to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant. It also reflects the value we place on the unique skills, experience and leadership qualities that members of the Armed Forces community bring to our organisation.
Our Commitment
At LIG, we are fortunate to have colleagues with military backgrounds across our teams. Their resilience, problem‑solving capability and commitment to excellence strengthen the way we deliver for our clients and partners every day.
By engaging with the ERS and the Armed Forces Covenant, we are reinforcing our dedication to:
-
Supporting veterans and service leavers as they transition into civilian careers
-
Recognising the contribution of reservists and enabling them to balance their service commitments
-
Championing the families who support those who serve
-
Creating an inclusive environment where defence personnel feel valued and supported
What’s Next
This Bronze Award is an important step in our journey, and we remain committed to deepening our support for the defence community as we continue to grow and evolve as an organisation.
We would like to thank the Ministry of Defence for this recognition and extend our appreciation to every member of the Armed Forces community connected to LIG – past, present and future.
