In the case of members of the Regular Reserve resident abroad, the duty station may be overseas. Personnel on FTRS(HC) are widely used to fill both short-term and longer-term commitments.
a. Short-term commitments will normally be used for posts or specific tasks for which Regular Army manpower is unavailable and where such liability requirements are confirmed by the TLB and created on JPA. Short-term commitments can be for a minimum of 6 months up to a maximum of 42 months (extensions for these type of posts beyond 42 months will only exceptionally be authorised by DM(A)).
b. Longer-term commitments are normally used to fill TA Support and military continuity posts (some former NRPS posts and FTRS(HC) RSG) that do not require the mobility or deployability of UKTAP personnel. Continuity posts will be identified in the remarks column of the establishment as shown on SLIM. Long-term commitments can be up to a maximum of 5 years and are renewable, subject to the continuing needs of the Service, performance and the age limits at Para 5 below.
2. FTRS(HC) RSG posts provide continuity in staff appointments where extensive military experience and staff credibility is essential. The experience needed for these posts is likely to require successful applicants to have held a full career in the Regular Army spanning numerous disciplines on operations and at staff as well as having completed formal staff training. Personnel may only be appointed on FTRS(HC) RSG terms to former UKTAP, RO or MSF posts redesignated by a TLB or in newly created RSG posts.
3. Personnel will fulfil the full range of duties appropriate to the post, without conditioned hours, but usually in a single restricted location. This is normally at the duty station but including attendance at, e.g. training events, courts martial, and routine meetings which may require travel. This does not extend to travel to an Operational Theatre. Compulsory detachments will be restricted to training periods or Regional operational events and should be specified in the individual’s commitment and job specification. In the case of members of the Regular Reserve resident abroad, the duty station may be overseas. FTRS(HC) personnel cannot be employed in an Operational Theatre or Role unless mobilised.
4. Manpower Control. The approval for the establishment of FTRS(HC) RSG posts is reserved to DM(A), but exercised through the LFEC process. DM(A) scrutiny is extended to those posts that are due to be created by another TLB, but requiring an Army fill. Future selections for FTRS(HC) RSG posts are to be taken by No6 Board and endorsed through No’s 2&4 Boards if applicable.
5. Age Limits. The normal retirement age for RFPS purposes is age 60 and only personnel retiring on or after their 60th birthday will receive an immediate pension; all other pensions will be preserved until 65. The age limits shown below may be varied with DM(A) authority in order to meet a Service need.
a. FTRS(HC) posts are designated short term, or long term continuity posts and have different retirement ages.
(1) Short Term. Officers 60 and Soldiers 55 years of age.
(2) Long Term Continuity. 60 years of age for both Officers and
Soldiers.
b. FTRS(HC) RSG the normal age of entry will be 50–60 with an NRA of 65, subject to annual confirmation of medical fitness after the age of 60.
6. Qualification. FTRS(HC) personnel should be selected with suitable experience and without requirement to conduct career courses for the post. It is accepted that there will be a requirement for Employment Training is some cases. FTRS(HC) RSG applicants are required to have completed formal staff training and hold the following staff qualifications:
a. OF3 posts - ‘sq’ or have successfully completed ICSC(L) plus a full staff tour as an SO2.

7. Liability for Deployment. Personnel on FTRS(HC) have no liability for operational deployment.
8. Mobilisation. Personnel on FTRS(HC) may be mobilised without restriction in their Reservist capacity although mobilisation is not expected unless in exceptional circumstances. The Chain of Command would balance any such mobilisation request against the requirements of the FTRS appointment being currently filled.
9. Single Living Accommodation (SLA).
a. FTRS(HC) commitments do not carry an entitlement to SLA. However, where accommodation is available and permission has been given by the commanding officer, individuals may exceptionally occupy SLA at the entitled rates but only in the duty station’s SLA.

Applications to occupy SSSA must be submitted through the chain of command in accordance with instructions published by the appropriate TLB prior to commencement of the commitment. Personnel occupying SSLA will be charged the entitled accommodation rates irrespective of age and marital status. Such personnel will not be entitled to Food and Incidentals Allowance (FIA) and will not pay food charges.
c. Personnel may occupy SLA when temporarily detached from their parent unit location or undergoing further training at a Defence or Army school or training unit, or on a duty away from their duty station that requires overnight accommodation.
d. Should an individual serving on FTRS(HC) be moved to meet the needs of the Service during a commitment and where the new duty station location is not within reasonable daily commuting distance from their permanent home address , whilst remaining non-entitled the individual may, subject to the staffing of a case to the appropriate deciding authority, be eligible to occupy SLA at entitled rates or receive HDT.

10. Service Family Accommodation (SFA). Personnel employed on FTRS(HC) are not entitled to SFA. If available, eligibility to live in surplus SFA may be granted by the employing unit CO in which case non-entitled rates are to be charged .

The FTRS Pay Increment Level will be at least equal to the current NRPS increment level.
12. Rank. Personnel in FTRS(HC) RSG employment who hold a higher substantive rank on retirement from Regular service, or who are awarded higher honorary rank on retirement, retain their right to use the title of their rank, followed by the suffix (Retired), when employed in an RSG post of lower rank.
