ISSUE AFFECTING THE EMPLOYER SUPPORT PAYMENT SCHEME
Defence is aware of an issue affecting the payment of some approved Employer Support Payment Scheme applications. Defence is working to fix this technical issue as a matter of urgency to ensure the processing of all approved payments are made as soon as possible. This issue is not effecting the submission of ESPS applications, which can still be made via the ESPS Online Claim System as normal.

Defence has recognised four SA employers for outstanding support of ADF reservists in their civilian workplaces.

Employer Support Awards will be presented to the organisations for their commitment to supporting Navy, Army and Air Force reservists over a sustained period or through a special effort, such as during the Defence involvement in bushfires and COVID-19 operations.

ADF reservists from across SA nominated their civilian employers for the awards.

Defence congratulates the following SA award recipients:

 - Small Private Enterprise Mv2
 - Medium Private Enterprise Ascent Professional Services Pty Ltd
 - Large Private Enterprise Jacobs Group Australia Pty Ltd
 - Public Sector Defence SA

 

The Women’s and Children’s Hospital was recognised with an Honourable Mention in the Public Sector category.

Defence representatives will visit the employers to present the awards. Recognition certificates will also be presented to all employers nominated by their reservist employees.
