The Defence Reserves Support Council (DRSC) is set up to promote the benefits of Reserve service to employers and the community and create an effective link between Reservists, employers, the ADF, all levels of government and the community. The DRSC is established by the direction of the Minister responsible for the Reserves and is supported financially and in management terms by a Memorandum of Understanding between the Department of Defence and the National Chair of the DRSC. DRSC members are selected in recognition of their place in the community (including business) and their ability to advocate issues relating to the interactions between Reservists, employers and the community in general. DRSC members have no military rank equivalency. The DRSC is supported in its activities by Defence Reserves Support (DRS), which has staff in each State and Territory. DRS provides governance and financial accountability for the running of the DRSC. State and Territory Council roles and responsibilities are based on strategic guidance provided by the Executive and set locally by the State or Territory Chair. State and Territory Councils bear the bulk of the responsibility for advocating on behalf of Reservists as well as developing and managing employer support and award programs. State and Territory Councils: • Act as an advisory body to the DRSC Executive and National Council • Support the DRSC in its aims and responsibilities • Encourage and support employers of Reservists • Educate the community about the value and role of Reserves • Educate and inform the employer community on the benefits that Reservists bring to employers and the workplace • Enlist supporters of Reservists from within the private and public sector employment groups Without the essential support of the DRSC, along with employers and the community, the Reserve component would not be able to deliver effective capability in support of the nation and its interests.
