BANGALORE, India, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Allstate India proudly announces the launch of its newest Employee Impact Group (EIG), the Allstate Veterans Engagement Team & Supporters (AVETS). This is another step that underscores Allstate’s unwavering commitment to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can connect and belong, learn and grow, and make an impact.

AVETS will offer continuing education and career training for veterans, including a tailored learning curriculum, a ‘buddy program’, and learning opportunities for spouses and immediate family members.

AVETS is also committed to expanding Allstate India’s ecosystem of veteran-oriented suppliers by working with companies owned and/or managed by former military, implementing mentorship programs and offering special payment terms to support these businesses. This benefits veteran-owned businesses and enhances Allstate India’s supplier diversity.

Commenting on the development, Shibu Zacharia, Director – Claims, and the executive sponsor for AVETS at Allstate India said, “The launch of AVETS represents a pivotal moment for Allstate India, where we are not only acknowledging the valor of our veterans, but actively harnessing their exceptional skills and leadership to drive innovation in the corporate world. This initiative goes beyond mere employment; it is about creating a supportive ecosystem that empowers veterans to thrive in their second careers. By bridging the gap between military service and corporate excellence, we enrich our workforce while setting a new standard for inclusive practices in the Indian business landscape. It is our belief that the discipline, adaptability, and strategic thinking cultivated in military service are invaluable assets in today’s dynamic business environment.”

Allstate India is focusing on attracting veteran talent across various departments. The company is opening up roles for veteran hiring in operations, technology, and corporate functions. These positions include operations managers, software developers, data engineers, project managers, and engineering managers, among others. Allstate India is committed to hiring veterans from different categories, including commissioned officers, junior commissioned officers, and non-commissioned officers, recognizing the value of their diverse experiences and skill sets.

Allstate strives to and encourages its employees to make meaningful impact through many such Employee Impacts Groups (EIGs). In addition to the new AVETS group, EIGs active in Allstate India include PRIDE – to support the LGBTQIA+ community, ABLE – for people with disabilities, and WIN – to empower women at the workplace.

Specified Technologies Inc. Unveils Firestop Clash Management and Locator Updates

Published

By

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.
