  • SSAB to Initiate Negotiations to Reduce Workforce in Finland
    PRESS RELEASE October 22, 2015 SSAB to initiate negotiations to reduce workforce in Finland SSAB is to initiate employer-employee negotiations regarding a potential reduction in the workforce at SSAB Europe division’s production site in Raahe and in the Ruukki Construction division. These negotiations are being initiated due to reasons related to production, financial situation and operational restructuring. The negotiations will affect around 2,900 employees in Finland and there is a need to reduce the workforce by a maximum of 295 persons. The negotiations at Ruukki Construction aim to reduce costs by a total of at least SEK 200 million on a permanent annual basis. This is in addition to SSAB’s cost synergies of SEK 1.4 billion announced earlier. The negotiations at the Raahe site affect the entire personnel, 2,455 persons: all employees in production and support functions at SSAB Europe, SSAB Special Steels and group functions. The plans will mean a reduction of a maximum of 210 jobs (140 front-line workers and 70 office employees). For SSAB Europe, these plans are a necessary part of the efficiency and synergy program the group announced earlier as a consequence of the combination of SSAB and Rautaruukki. Integration is progressing to plan. Ruukki Construction continues with the restructuring and has launched a new cost- savings program across its business in all countries where it operates. The program aims to achieve a permanent cost impact on an annual basis of at least SEK 200 million in processing, administration, marketing and sales costs, with full impact from 2017 onwards.
