In the first quarter of 2026, including associated companies and joint ventures, the Group paid UAH4.3 billion in taxes and duties to budgets at all levels in the county.The three largest contributions were subsoil use fees, totalling UAH1.2 billion, the unified social contribution, at UAH823 million, and personal income tax, amounting to UAH727 million.In addition, in January-March 2026, Metinvest’s Ukrainian enterprises paid UAH351 million in corporate income tax, UAH328 million in land fees, UAH331 million in value added tax and UAH207 million in military levies. Meanwhile, environmental tax increased by 15% year-on-year, reaching UAH190 million.Yuriy RYZHENKOV, CEO of Metinvest Group, said: “For 20 years, Metinvest has been working for Ukraine, and under all circumstances we have remained committed to a simple principle: to operate transparently and pay our taxes. War and crises m

Each year, as part of the municipal improvement programme, employees of Metinvest’s mining and processing plants traditionally carry out maintenance on the areas assigned to their respective departments, upgrade industrial sites and recreational zones around administrative buildings, and maintain lawns and flowerbeds.The youth group of Metinvest’s Central Iron Ore went beyond the plant’s industrial site and took part in a tree‑planting initiative on Roman Shukhevych Street in Pokrovskyi District. The launch of this worthwhile initiative – the greening of their home city and neighbourhood – dates back to last spring. At that time, activists from the plant’s youth movement began landscaping the area near the building housing the Recruitment, Training and Personnel Development Department, as well as the Central Iron Ore's Museum of Labour Glory and Youth Hub. This is where ten young chestnut trees were planted and have since taken root.Last Saturday, a further eleven chestnut trees, elev

For more than four years, the INTEGRATED GOK of Metinvest has been operating in the conditions of military aggression of the neighbouring country, which adds risks and deadly factors. Today, occupational health and safety specialists have a great responsibility. And it consists not only in the prevention of accidents, occupational diseases or accidents, but also in training teams in algorithms of actions to eliminate the consequences of emergencies caused by the war.The INTEGRATED GOK of Metinvest consists of three mining and processing plants in Kryvyi Rih, where 10.5 thousand people work. With the beginning of russia's full-scale armed aggression, workers lost the opportunity to work in safe conditions, but enterprises are working at their maximum to create conditions to protect employees from the threats of war. The lion's share of this work falls on the Directorate for Labor Protection, Industrial Safety and Ecology, which has up to 50 specialists in three GOKs.In 2022, a new emph

Individual learning pathways, continuous career guidance, and stronger collaboration between education and business are shaping new approaches to training specialists in Ukraine. These themes were central at EdCamp in Kryvyi Rih, which brought together educators, experts, business representatives, and Metinvest Polytechnic.The modern education system teaches everyone the same way – and that is its core problem. Globally, only 23% of people feel engaged in their work, while around 40% of young professionals still do not understand their professional profile even after the age of 25. In Ukraine, the situation is even more acute, with most graduates working outside their field of study. These issues were highlighted during the EdCamp event in Kryvyi Rih, where participants discussed the future of education and career guidance. The event gathered over 180 participants from different cities across Ukraine – educators, experts, and business representatives. The focus of discussion was how t

At the Open Day event entitled ‘Welcome Day: Career Start’ organised by Zaporizhzhia National University, young people from Zaporizhzhia explored educational and professional opportunities. Zaporizhstal presented one of the most popular areas at the event and demonstrated that a career path in metallurgy can be clear, modern, and promising.At the plant’s interactive area, participants learned about the opportunities available to young people even during their studies: introductory, industrial and pre-graduation placements, paid internships, mentoring support, and for the best candidates, prospects of employment. Each year, more than 300 students and pupils benefit from these opportunities at Zaporizhstal and other Metinvest Group enterprises in Zaporizhzhia.Particular emphasis during interactions with visitors was placed on youth support programmes that help not only to enter the profession but also to build a confident and sustainable career. In particular, the ‘First Job’ programme

Їхні ідеї висміювали. Їхні рішення здавалися божевіллям. Вони ризикували, помилялися, ішли наперекір усьому світу та стоїчно розвивали свою ідею. І таки зламали правила гри, зробивши те, що вважалося цілковито нездійсненним.Радикальний винахідник Генрі БессемерЗамість кілограмів сталі – тонни. У рази швидше і значно дешевше. Якби на початку XIX століття хтось сказав, що це можливо, його б точно взяли на кпини.Жартували і над Генрі Бессемером – навіть попри лицарський титул і офіційний статус винахідника. На щастя, він був надто зайнятий, щоб цим перейматися. Тигель із чавуном, через який науковець продував стиснене повітря, перетворювався на подобу вулкану, плювався навсібіч вогнем, але сер Генрі не здавався і зрештою досяг свого.Після виступу на засіданні Британської асоціації сприяння науки над ним вже ніхто не потішався. Бо разом із доповіддю він приніс той самий тигель – і наочно продемонстрував метод виробництва сталі зі значно меншим вмістом вуглецю. Це дозволило виготовляти її
