Every year, Zaporizhstal allocates around UAH 4 million to provide financial assistance to the veterans of the company.

Metinvest enterprises in Zaporizhzhia – Zaporizhstal, Zaporozhogneupor and Zaporizhcoke – made their contribution to annual charity marathon “Remembrance” by providing charitable financial aid to regional and city veteran organizations in the amount of UAH 40 thousand.

Representatives of Zaporizhstal’s administration, trade union committee, youth organisation and veterans’ council traditionally honoured the memory of the workers fallen in World War II with a minute of silence and laid flowers at World War II memorials located in the territory of the steelworks.

Every year, the steelworks pays a quarterly supplementary pension to veterans and provides them financial aid for the holidays, guarantees health insurance and medical care, and supports the activities of the company’s Veterans’ Council.
