Still waiting for this supposedly simple explanation, that should've been ready and around for decades, just to be trotted out.

The same way anyone else increases GDP - assuming they're working.
The person works and presumably produces something of value for someone which'll contribute to the overall output of the country. In turn, they'll also be paid and spend in the economy generating further demand and in theory futher work (which will lead to more output, more spending and so on).
