In Territorial Army, the period for which an officer serves is known as his period of 'Embodiment'. The commitment of embodiment is taken in writing at the start of each year of service. Territorial Army officers can opt to serve for the duration of their choice (one to 12 months) or just attend the annual training camp for two months in a year. The officer will get his salary from Territorial Army only for the duration they have served. After completion of the service, candidates will go and join their own job. Then candidates will not get a salary for Territorial Army but from their employers.
