The adjustment program initiated by Ruukki Construction in June 2023 has completed. The changes affected all the company's businesses and operating countries and were aimed at aligning operations to lower demand  on the construction market and achieving cost savings of approximately EUR 15 million. In June, the company estimated that the measures could result in the reduction of approximately 200 positions.

"Although the low demand situation on the construction market looks set to continue next year, we strongly believe in our ability to succeed in the future. A clearer operating model and a stronger focus on core businesses will improve our competitiveness going forward. Sustainable low-carbon products, close customer cooperation and local operations near customers are at the core of our strategy, and we will continue to implement our multi-year investment program to ensure sustainable growth together with our customers," says Sami Eronen, President, Ruukki Construction.

Following the adjustment measures, Ruukki Construction employs around 1,350 people in a total of ten countries in the Nordics, Baltics and Central Eastern Europe.
