ArcelorMittal announced a project to reorganize ArcelorMittal Service Centers, its subsidiary operating in the wholesale of metals and minerals. The company stated that with this project, the service centers in Reims and Denis are possible to be closed.
ArcelorMittal reported a significant decrease in customer activities in the industrial and automotive sectors. The downward trend intensified particularly in recent months, the company emphasized.
ArcelorMittal's reorganization plan potentially to impact 130 employees, leading to a negative reaction from trade unions. Unions demand social measures to minimize the negative effects of the reorganization approach on workers.
Action across all French ArcelorMittal plants is planned for next week following the strike by workers at the Denis plant. The company authorities agreed to start negotiations with the workers' union representatives to discuss elements of support. The balance between actions and negotiations is expected to take into account workers' demands.
