<p>All members of the Armed Forces receive an attractive package of terms and conditions
of service which include a competitive salary with incremental pay scales, a non-contributory
pension scheme, subsidised accommodation and access to free medical and dental care.
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) also uses a variety of financial incentives to assist
with recruitment and retention of Armed Forces personnel to tackle shortages in particular
areas.</p><p> </p><p>The Services monitor outflow very carefully, although it should
be recognised that some churn in strength, particularly in the lower ranks, is welcome
and helps to refresh the Armed Forces. Instances of high outflow are mitigated through
a variety of management actions which include extensions of Service, financial retention
initiatives and inter-Service transfers.</p><p> </p><p>The MOD has long standing links
with private sector companies, and we work closely with them to help resettle Service
personnel at the end of their Service careers through programmes such as the Career
Transition Partnership.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
