On Monday and Tuesday of this week (April 18th-19th) the Handball Hall in Kosice was the venue for a series of meetings for employees of U. S. Steel Kosice, to which they were invited by USSK President Christopher Navetta and the Company management.

Open Days at USSK

Once again, just like last year, USSK Visitors' Center is organizing Open Days for the family members of U. S. Steel Kosice employees. This event is expected to attract great interest, because after all such an opportunity to take a close look at our Company's operations and get to know the steelmakers' demanding and responsible work does not come around very often. This year again guided tours have been prepared for interested visitors during working hours and over the weekend, so that everyone can choose a time that suits them.

This event, which takes the form of a competition and which has been entered during the course of its existence by more than 200 students from Slovakia, but also from abroad, is also sponsored by U. S. Steel Kosice.
