ArcelorMittal Releases 2025 Sustainability Report Detailing Safety Improvements and Revised Decarbonization Targets

ArcelorMittal published its 2025 Sustainability Report on April 23, 2026, detailing progress made in 2025 toward safe, lower-carbon and responsible steelmaking. The report outlines achievements across safety transformation, climate action, innovation and environmental performance, including the company's updated decarbonisation trajectory in response to shifting market and policy conditions.

Prepared in line with the EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive, the report reflects guiding principles from IFRS, GRI, SASB, the UN Global Compact and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

ArcelorMittal CEO Aditya Mittal stated: 'In July this year ArcelorMittal will celebrate its 20th anniversary. ' Mittal added: 'Today our two most material sustainability issues are safety and climate. Safety is a non-negotiable, core value at ArcelorMittal.

In 2025, all the safety KPIs we track improved compared with the previous year, reflecting clearer leadership expectations, more uniform risk-management practices and the continued expansion of process safety work across higher-risk installations. ' In the first full year of its three-year safety transformation programme in 2025, ArcelorMittal recorded a more than 50% reduction in its fatality frequency rate year-on-year, marking the lowest in the company's history.

The company also recorded a 7% reduction in its lost-time injury frequency in 2025.

On climate efforts, Mittal stated: 'Our ambition to achieve net zero by 2050 remains in place, even as the realities of the energy transition have proved far less straightforward than initially foreseen. Concerns around competitiveness, re-industrialisation, inflation and energy security have moved to the centre of the debate, leading us to revise our 2030 emissions reduction expectations.
