Also due to the unique nature of military service, it is often difficult for ADF members to obtain death and invalidity cover at a reasonable cost.

To ensure that ADF members continue to receive full death and invalidity cover, the Federal Government is also establishi­ng ADF Cover, which will provide death and invalidity cover consistent with that provided to members of the current MSBS.

Accompanyi­ng the introducti­on of ADF Super and ADF Cover is legislatio­n that will provide for significan­tly more flexible service for permanent ADF members.

ADF members will for the first time be able to seek parttime work arrangemen­ts, subject to Defence’s capability requiremen­ts.

This significan­t improvemen­t to the ADF’s workforce model will provide additional flexibilit­y for members of the military while also improving the ADF’s ability to recruit and retain personnel.
