Statement regarding Coronavirus outbreak
March 19 2020 - 3:00AM
19 March 2020, 08:00 CET
ArcelorMittal (‘the Company’) takes the risks associated with
the coronavirus outbreak very seriously and the safety and
wellbeing of our employees is of paramount importance. At all
global operations we are following government and World Health
Organisation advice and guidelines in order to protect employees
and prevent the spread of infection.
Given the extent of the outbreak, the health and safety
implications, and particularly the impact it is having on several
European countries in which ArcelorMittal operates, the Company is
taking steps to reduce production from its European operations to
ensure the wellbeing of our employees is maintained and that
production is aligned with demand. We will continue to monitor the
evolution of the coronavirus in each of our operating markets and
take decisions accordingly to ensure the wellbeing of our employees
and our ability to meet customer demand.

machines. We are actively researching and producing steel-based
technologies and solutions that make many of the products and
components people use in their everyday lives more energy

diversified portfolio of iron ore and coal assets, we are
strategically positioned to serve our network of steel plants and
