Working Together for a Better Tomorrow

By KK Chong and David Nakayama - Published May 20, 2024

International Workers' Day or Labor Day is observed every May 1st as a time to appreciate everyone’s hard work over our 35 Years of sustainable development in Thailand. We celebrate the thousands of women and men who have been part of Delta Thailand's growth story for over three decades. Your two hands proudly build "Made in Thailand" products for the world and forge a sustainable future for our next generation.

Every day, our brave and hardworking people at Delta Thailand factories work relentlessly to satisfy global customers and support families, communities and the nation. We have braved floods and a pandemic and emerged stronger, together. And we are growing fast. You can now look forward to new factories, R&D centers and offices and many more jobs at Delta Thailand over the next few years.

A core message of Labor Day is unity for all workers. Here on our 360 online platform, you can connect with workmates at Delta factories, warehouses, labs and offices in Thailand and around the region. We welcome anyone to share ideas and experiences from Production workers in the Thailand factory to the Field Service Engineers at customer sites in Singapore. Sharing your ideas and feedback is an important part of creating a better tomorrow for everyone at Delta.

Over the last four years, we have shared your voices and often the most based and practical folks you’ll ever meet are found right here on the shopfloor or onsite at the Genba (現場) dealing every day with real people and solving real issues. Beyond work, your stories show the true impact we have on our communities and families. From village schools to wildlife habitats, your care helps to preserve our planet and prepare the next generations for the future.

In this May issue, we focus on our work to build a career and a life to be proud of with our own two hands.
