France: On 1 June 2011 Lafarge announced that it would close its plant in Frangey, northern France, by the end of 2012. The site, which employs 74 people, is struggling due to overcapacity and high production costs. The workers will be offered alternative positions within the group. Workers at 10 cement plants and four grinding facilities in France staged a one-day strike on 6 June 2011 in protest at the closure.
