Description

On 11 February 2012, the management of the steel mill Huta Małapanew in Ozimek, near Opole, announced plans to cut up to 200 jobs by the end 2013.

The company is to reduce the workforce mainly in non-production departments. The restructuring is attributed to the general slowdown of the steel industry and a drop in orders.

The company currently employs 650 people.
