What is Employer Notification?

Employer Notification (EN) is a procedure which took effect on 1 April 2004. EN means that the Ministry of Defence will write directly to you if one of your employees joins the Volunteer Reserve Forces or is engaging for a further period of service as a Reservist. The letter is designed to let you know that you have a Reservist working for you, and to tell you who you can talk to about the related benefits,rights and obligations. Effectively, EN means that a Reservist will have to tell you that they are a Reservist unless there is a very good reason not to.
