Amendment No. 1
---------------

This Amendment No. 1 (this "Amendment") amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of
Worthington Industries, Inc. (the "Registrant"), dated as of December 21, 2005,
regarding the news release issued on December 21, 2005 discussing the Company's
second quarter fiscal 2006 results. This Amendment updates the previous filing
to correct typographical errors in the Supplemental Data Sheet which was part of
the news release referred to under Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial
Condition of the Form 8-K.

Item 2.02.      Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On December 21, 2005 the Registrant issued a news release reporting results for
its second quarter of fiscal 2006. The introductory paragraph of the
Supplemental Data Sheet attached to the financials contained typographical
errors in the reference to the fiscal years. No data reported in the table
itself is incorrect. The typographical errors appeared in the introductory
paragraph where the reference to fiscal 2005 should have been to fiscal 2006 and
the reference to fiscal 2004 should have been to fiscal 2005. The dates in the
table were correct.

A copy of the news release (the "Release") containing such revisions is attached
as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. Pursuant to
General Instruction B.2 of Current Report on Form 8-K, the information in this
Item 2.02 is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes
of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise
subject to the liability of that section. Furthermore, the information in this
Item 2.02 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings
of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 9.01.      Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(a)-(c) Not applicable.

(d) Exhibits:
