Otmane El Rhazi : ArcelorMittal Mexico unit to slash 2 800 jobs

Otmane El Rhazi from Mining Weekly | Ferrous Metals Home.

ArcelorMittal, the world's largest producer of steel, will cut 2 800 jobs at its Mexico unit as global prices slump, it said in a joint statement with local competitors on Wednesday, while accusing Russia, China and Turkey of dumping steel on markets at levels below production costs. Altos Hornos de Mexico (AHMSA), DeAcero and ArcelorMittal warned in the statement that if Mexico continues to import steel products at what it called dumping prices, the number of job cuts will rise.
