As such, I am afforded valuable insights into how women try to adapt to ADF life when circumstances changing their ability to offer unrestricted servcie impact upon their health (usually pregnancy or child-care related) 1. Any measures to increase enlistment of women needs to be able to incorporate enough flexibility to accommodate for women's usual biological cycles. For example, the current PTLWOP provisions are not widely known of by other ranks and are being poorly accessed through the system. Some Women are seeking access to fertility services to try and relieve arduous postings, eg women posted to infantry battalions in support roles, yet expected to keep up with usual Battalion requirements eg 40km route marches. I have also seen single women opt for unplanned pregnancies to avoid deployments. 2.Mentoring by women in ADF is haphazard and not formally endorsed by chain of command. Having served as a private, a GSO and now an SSO and having ADF service since 1987, I am unaware of any formal networks for ADF women to support each other, especially through field posting cycles. 3. This is haphazard at best. In 2011, I have witnessed adverse comments about women who fall pregnant, about women who want time off for caring for children, about women who effectively are offering restricted service while their children are below school age, not only from peers but more damagingly, from Commanding Officer's. 5. Formal support measures need to be implemented to ensure minimisation of local bullying of vulnerable (women who are pregnant or responsible for care of children) eg women could be allowed to nominate as being non-deployable for children under school age without career disadvantage. Defence needs to stop promoting images of happy deployed mothers of young children as ""normal"" eg in defence family magazines. Part B 1.SCMA should cease posting GAP year women and girls into infantry battalions. 2.non-recognition of the bond between mothers and children is driving women from ADF and causing significant mental health issues for those who try to soldier on. ADF needs clear policy that women can choose to access, without career recrimination, for family ""restricted"" service eg similar to what elite sportspeople are currently afforded 3. women on maternity leave should be exempt from being made to undergo IWBs (individual welfare boards) exempt in EXCEPTIONAL circumstances 4. some of the senior women in ADf should stop focusing on their senior rank representation and instead focus on life for our female soldiers and how they are to best supported eg formal mentoring arrangements (I am not aware of any for our junior ranks form our senior women) 5. women posted to field force units need to be exempt from infantry requirements - the rate at which our Army women are sustaining musculoskeletal injuries is ridiculous 6. I am not personally aware of ANY job-sharing women - how about some PR for those who have managed to have some local support? 7. recognition by the system that some women are using pregnancy to alleviate arduous and hazardous postings 8. recognition that our older ADF women eg peri or menopausal women face different health challenges and some recognition of this eg a MECR similar to pregnancy      PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 1 1235689;<>?VWXYZ\]ӿh@Sh+YmHnHu h_h@Sjh_h@SUh vjh vU hV/hh*h hhL T"0124578:;=>gdmLgdgdV/>Z[\]gdV/gdq:&P 1h:pqBP.
