The decision was a result of the continuous challenges in the global market status which includes, fluctuating oil prices, unfairly traded imports and depressed steel prices and associated inventory overhang. The company will still continue its services in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana and as well as its finishing operations in Alabama. Employees of Granite City Works were given notices under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act last October 8, 2015.
