ArcelorMittal resumed output at its Bosnia steel plant on Thursday after a 10-day stoppage due to a drop in demand caused by the COVID-19 crisis.
Steel end-users, including automakers, shut operations in March when Bosnia imposed a lockdown in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The ArcelorMittal plant in the central town of Zenica had said that since the beginning of the outbreak management had taken measures to trim costs, procure protection equipment and renegotiate gas and power prices with suppliers.
Operations at the Omarska iron ore mines in northwestern Bosnia remain shut due to the crisis, spokesman Predrag Sorga revealed.
ArcelorMittal steelmaker employs around 1,400 workers in Zenica and 800 at Omarska.
