AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT EVRAZ

Am I Next? Evraz layoffs — downturn in steel business.

Chicago, Illinois-based EVRAZ, a multinational vertically integrated steel and mining company owned by Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, has announced that it will lay off an additional 65 employees at its Oregon Steel mill in Portland Oregon. The layoffs follow the April, 2020 lay off of 232 employees at the same location.

The decision was driven by a "significant downturn in business." Much of the decline appears to be driven by the slump in oil and gas production, the delay of pipeline projects along with issues of imported and subsidized pipe into the marketplace.

Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
