SHEFFIELD, England, June 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Tan Delta Systems, the leading global manufacturer of real-time oil quality monitoring sensors and systems, announces that it has signed the Armed Forces Covenant - a national pledge to support the Armed Forces Community. Formally signing the Covenant is part of Tan Delta's commitment to ensuring that the substantial transferable business skills held by ex-service personnel are recognised and valued by the company, and identified via its recruitment processes.
The signing of the Covenant shows the dedication of Tan Delta as an employer of veterans, and its support to the Armed Forces Community. Active Reservists and ex-service personnel are already part of the Tan Delta family; the next step is to access a wider talent pool for future recruitment, by promoting opportunities to the Forces Community.
Tan Delta Systems' CEO, Chris Greenwood, said: "Joining the Armed Forces Covenant is not only a positive symbolic gesture; it is a tangible step towards acknowledging the enormous sacrifices made by our military personnel. It is a commitment to fostering an environment where veterans and active-duty members can access employment opportunities on a level playing field. He added: "We believe it is our duty as an employer to seek out the relevant skills that forces personnel may have, rather than assume that because their previous role was 'x' and the job is 'y' that they would not be a good fit. Our experience of working with Forces' and ex-Forces' personnel so far suggests that most will rise to any challenge if given the opportunity."
While Tan Delta is an engineering technology firm, the company's rapid global expansion plans may align well with needs of the armed forces community in the future. "It is not just those from an engineering and technology background that we will need. We understand that the transferrable skills learnt and applied in the military are extremely valuable in business. Not to mention the attributes that are a pre-requisite for those serving in the armed forces – namely reliability, dedication, commitment, work ethic and team work among other personal traits. These fundamental characteristics tend to be a 'given' with the vast majority of armed forces' personnel, serving individuals well in a broad range of roles," Chris Greenwood concluded.
Smart AI sensors powered by Tan Delta are deployed all over the world, from biogas plants to ships and mines, from the battlefield to manufacturing plants and diesel locomotives – anywhere industrial oil is used to lubricate. For further information, visit: www.tandeltasystems.com
