Gallagher Bassett has signed a pledge with veterans’ organisation Soldier On to make its workplaces more supportive of former armed services members.

Soldier On advises companies on employing and recruiting ex-services personnel and family members, and on finding quality applicants.

“This commitment is a fantastic opportunity for our people to develop a greater understanding of our veteran community and support the transition of ex-services personnel into the next phase of their careers,” the claims manager’s CEO John McNamara said.
