There has been a huge shift in the narrative around veterans over the last ten years, to a recognition that veterans possess key attributes and in-demand skills that make them an important national resource for UK business.

Veterans Work has produced a new report that examines how far we have come and what work there is still to do.
Veterans Work: Then & Now report takes stock and celebrates positive progress that has been made in the veteran employment space in the last decade. It also shines a light on the remaining challenges veterans face when looking for civilian work, and further improvements that could be made.
