In September, [the United Steelworkers] helped to convene an international meeting of unions that represent workers at Arcelor Mittal, the world's largest steelmaker. It persuaded the company to establish global safety and health standards in conjunction with the unions and to allow workers to form a union at the company's Liberian mining operation...
