Career Transition Partnership Annual statistics: UK Regular Service Personnel Employment 2012 - 2017

Abstract: This Statistical bulletin provides summary statistics on employment outcomes, six months after leaving Service, for UK regular and Gurkha Service personnel who left the UK Armed Forces and accessed employment support provided by the Career Transition Partnership (CTP). The CTP supports Service leavers in their transition from military to civilian life through a range of career and employment support services including workshops, one-to-one guidance and job finding support. There are three main employment outcomes: employed, unemployed and economically inactive (not in employment, but not actively looking for work). This Statistical bulletin presents top-level employment outcomes for Service leavers in each financial year between 2012/13 and 2016/17, with further detail on employment outcomes by key demographics, employed occupations and reasons for economic inactivity for 2016/17 Service leavers. Statistics are also presented on employment outcomes for Service leavers selected for the MOD redundancy programme which ran between September 2011 and June 2014, with the final updated information presented for those who left during the last redundancy phase (Tranche 4).
