“An Army that is justifiably recognised as a demonstrably inclusive employer that respects difference, attracts talent from all areas of society, overtly embraces equality of opportunity and always challenges unacceptable behaviour”.
Army diversity and inclusion advisors
Every unit in the British Army has a trained D&I advisor who ensures that their unit has an inclusive culture and assists the commanding officer in supporting those who are treated unacceptably, they lead on informal resolution and signpost the many organisations that are there to support our soldiers including the Speakout confidential helpline and the army mediation service.
The Army’s Speak Out team provides confidential support for anyone experiencing unacceptable behaviours and also offers support to the CoC. It is staffed by military personnel and is open every day from 0830-1700 Monday to Friday excluding bank holidays and Christmas stand down.
Speak out signposts Service Personnel to suitable contacts in their units to enable the problem to be addressed at the most appropriate level of escalation.
Contact us on Mil 96770 4656 or Civ 0306 770 4656 and the e-mail address is [email protected]
The Army Mediation Service (AMS) provides soldiers and civil servants with the opportunity to address workplace relationships which have broken down by offering resolution at the appropriate level of escalation. Mediation is most effective when used to address problems when they first occur so that individuals can resolve issues before they get out of hand.
The AMS can be contacted for advice and support on Mil 96770 7691 or Civ 0306 770 7691 or e-mail [email protected].
