Workers at ArcelorMittal’s steel plant in western Mexico went on strike on Friday, the company and the national union said, as the industry grapples with a plunge in prices. More than 3 000 workers have gone on strike over job cuts and stopped operations at the plant in Lazaro Cardenas, Michoacan, Ricardo Torres, the head of the local section 271 of the national miners and metal workers union, said.
