lefigaro.fr Reuters 10/22/2010 The union CFE-CGC ArcelorMittal on Friday called for a strike in France and Belgium on October 25 to protest against plans to outsource IT activities of the European number one Global steel industry. According to the CFE-CGC, the main trade union group for this activity, the outsourcing project involves about 500 employees in Europe with 150 people in France, mainly in Dunkerque (Nord). The decision on outsourcing of business and its new location must be taken by the end of the year. ArcelorMittal announced in mid-September a new plan to save two billion dollars by 2012, which adds to the already saved three billion since the start of the financial crisis, mainly through downsizing.
Arcelor blocks Trilogiport
Philip Lawson IIb 22/10/2010 Trilogiport is again facing a major challenge. It concerns the connection of the railway platform. This must be done by passing the site of ArcelorMittal Chertal and using the railroad which owns the steel company. To this end, an agreement must be signed between the Autonomous Port of Liège (PAL), prime contractor for the project Trilogiport, the Walloon Region, subsidizing authority, and ArcelorMittal.
A first draft convention submitted by the steel group with its partners has elicited comments from the dealers of the future multimodal platform. They felt that access conditions suffered from certain limitations. Having expressed their concerns to the group of Lakshmi Mittal, they hoped that it review its position, especially as it may also benefit from the infrastructure Trilogiport. But now that ArcelorMittal is very greedy financially for the use of their infrastructure. Witness the new text of agreement that sent them. The point was even mentioned at the last Board of Directors of PAL. "We see the reading of this text a tightening of access that makes it very random use of the railway of ArcelorMittal Liège Trilogiport users. In addition, the financial claims are important and ArcelorMittal ArcelorMittal also requires the abandonment to his benefit posed by the railway SPW (Note: regional administration), "we read in the minutes of the meeting of the Board of Directors held on September 22.
In the document we have learned, there are reports of disagreement dealers and leaders of the port. For companies CETIM / GSD, the conditions imposed by ArcelorMittal are inconsistent with sound commercial and economic security and legal minimum expected by industrial operators. For the limited company Trilogiport Terminal, ArcelorMittall constraints in the proposed agreement are so large that they do it permit "to ensure quality service and ensure customer deadlines." SA WDP also show his opposition to the text.
interlocutors we contacted refused to give an idea of financial ambitions of ArcelorMittal. The managing director of PAL, Michael Lamotte (UNHRC) has indicated that negotiations would be initiated to clarify the situation with ArcelorMittal. The board of administration has decided to seek the intervention of the Walloon Government for this purpose.
Where ArcelorMittal would not see his position, a path independent rail is considered. "An impact study would be required with the key, obtaining a new license," they say. Moreover, it would increase the cost of the project Trilogiport. Currently, the total investment amounts to approximately 155 million euros, 115 million contributed by private partners (Euroports, Dubai Ports World, etc..) And 40 million from the public. It aims to develop
120 hectares for various industries: container terminal logistics area of European distribution centers, etc.. Proponents point out that Trilogiport should result in the creation of 2000 new jobs and enhance the potential for transfer to the Walloon waterways. "Trilogiport Liege is a challenge that we face. This is a major opportunity for the economic restructuring of Liege and contribute positively to the future of Wallonia," said Willy Demeyer recently, Mayor of Cork and chairman of the board administration of PAL
