In An Official Statement, Usiminas Announced It Will Restart Steel Industry in Ipatinga and Alto do Jequitinhonha. Over 1000 Jobs.

[supsystic-social-sharing id=’1′]After experiencing significant difficulties, Usiminas is beginning to have its prelude to a positive turnaround. The company realized that the time to generate jobs has returned and plans to hire around one thousand workers for projects in Ipatinga, in the Steel Valley, and in Serra Azul, in Alto do Jequitinhonha. It is also targeting the international market.

In the Ipatinga region, 520 job positions will be opened, 500 temporary and the remainder for machinery operation after the construction is completed, all scheduled for April 2018.

Another recently resumed project was Usiminas’ dual mining plant in Serra Azul. The goal is to maximize the company’s mineral extraction by over 24% and export to the international market.

The company is slowly gaining momentum in the national steel industry, but this recovery is for the medium and long term, considering that the best moment for the sector was in 2013.

“We will only consume the same volume again in 2028,” emphasized Usiminas’ president, Sérgio Leite, during the presentation of the company’s figures to legislators at the Legislative Assembly of Minas Gerais (ALMG) yesterday.

According to the businessman, there was a 30% decline in steel ore transactions during the period from 2014 to 2016, while this year the indicators show a 5% increase.

In addition to this crisis affecting the sector, shareholders are in a real “give-and-take” to decide who will take over Usiminas once and for all. The main players in this dispute are Ternium Technint and Nippon Steel. Sérgio Leite did not want to commit and stated: “I have good relationships with both sides.” Source: Hoje em Dia
