Steel Dynamics receives Steel Producer of the Year award

The Fastmarkets award was the most recent recognition SDI has received recently. 

In early February, Forbes named the company one of the World’s Best Employers for 2021. SDI was the only U.S. steel producer to receive this designation and one of only 236 U.S.-based businesses to make the 2021 list, which is comprised of 750 global companies.

"We are especially honored by this recognition," Millet says "Above all, we value the dedicated people whose drive, innovation and commitment have helped successfully grow our company and serve our customers. Our teams are the foundation and driver of our success. Their passion compels us to the highest standard of excellence, and their health and safety is our number one value. I thank each of them for their dedication to each other, our customers, and our communities."

Forbes and Statista selected the World's Best Employers for 2021 based on independent surveys of roughly 150,000 employees in more than 55 countries working around the world. Participants were asked to rate employers on aspects such as image, trust, gender equality, corporate social responsibility, culture and benefits. The 750 companies that received the highest total scores made the final list.
