Transcription of WORLD STEEL IN FIGURES 2018
1 WORLD STEEL IN FIGURES 2018 TABLE OF CONTENTSTo say that the STEEL industry is experiencing interesting times would be an understatement. However, progress is being made at various levels. At the recent meeting of the Global Forum for STEEL Excess Capacity (GFSEC), a G20 initiative, six important principles were agreed by ministers of G20 countries. All are focused around ensuring that a level playing field should exist for steelmakers in all countries and that markets should remain free and fair for STEEL to be traded between countries. I am hopeful that the heightened level of trade tensions will abate and that our positive outlook for STEEL demand will remain. The Short Range Outlook for the next 18 months suggests 2018 growth of followed by in 2019. STEEL demand is benefitting from the broad and favourable global economic momentum affecting both the developed and developing WORLD at the same time. The worldsteel programmes in the automotive, construction, packaging and rail sectors all aim to maintain the role of STEEL as a versatile product without which modern society cannot remain Board members agreed to focus renewed attention on reaching the performance levels we see in our top 15%.
2 Our technology committee has produced extensive data and benchmarking information, with the challenge to reduce carbon emissions and increase energy efficiency in the steelmaking process. This service is available to all worldsteel members to be used for their own benefit. Six worldsteel members (ArcelorMittal, Tata STEEL Europe, Tata STEEL Limited, Tenaris, thyssenkrupp AG and voestalpine AG) have been recognised for their outstanding efforts in sustainability activities. Congratulations to these sustainability champions! This booklet provides a comprehensive overview of STEEL industry activities, stretching from production to STEEL use to some indications on trade flows. We are always looking to improve.

We aim to continually reduce our environmental and innovative steels are continually developed. In 2016, the STEEL industry invested 13% of revenue in capital investment projects and process is crucialContributing to societyIn 2016, the STEEL industry distributed an estimated 1 029 billion USD, of its revenue, to society directly and first, nothing is more important We are working towards zero incidents. In 2016, the industry 's Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate was , an improvement of 78% since capital is a key assetWorldwide 6 million people work for the STEEL industry .
5 In 2016, STEEL companies provided each employee with training days on average. A systematic approach brings effective results In 2016, about of STEEL industry employees and contractors worked in EMS*-registered production facilities. Biggest challenge of the industry In 2016, on average tonnes of CO2 were emitted for every tonne of STEEL produced. Breakthrough technologies are being developed worldwide to address this improvement in energy consumption In the last 50 years the STEEL industry has reduced its energy intensity per tonne of STEEL produced by 60%. The average in 2016 was management of natural resources Very little waste is produced. In 2016, of the raw materials used for steelmaking were converted to STEEL products and resource efficiency, nothing to waste Nearly 100% of our industry by-products can be used. Steelmaking by-products are used in concrete, fertilisers, plastics, paints and cosmetics. Informed decisions on material choice We provide life cycle inventory data for 16 key STEEL products.

INITIATIVESSTEEL SAFETY DAY A safe and healthy working environment is the number one priority for every worldsteel member.
7 STEEL Safety Day was set up to reinforce awareness of the five most common causes of safety SUSTAINABILITY CHAMPIONS This programme aims to encourage STEEL companies to increase their efforts, set higher standards and make further progress in their sustainability programmes and business ACTION This programme recognises STEEL producers that submit CO2 emissions data for worldsteel s data collection, according to the worldsteel methodology now a standard, ISO 14404. GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION FORUM The industry is working together on a number of initiatives to develop breakthrough steelmaking technologies that can reduce CO2 emissions by at least 50%, potentially revolutionising the way STEEL is CYCLE ASSESSMENT In 2017, worldsteel released its fourth global and regional STEEL life cycle inventory (LCI) data, which has been developed following international standards on LCA. ONLINE BENCHMARKING SYSTEMS worldsteel offers free online benchmarking systems for its members on reliability, process yield, and energy intensity for each process of the basic oxygen furnace and electric arc furnace production AWARDS The Steelie Awards recognise member companies or individuals for their contribution to the STEEL industry over a one-year period in a series of categories.

In cases of 30%-50% ownership, pro-rata tonnage is included.
