UPS plans to reduce sorting shifts in Charlotte amid the possibility of additional closures.

UPS is reducing operations at its Charlotte, North Carolina facility, impacting 99 employees due to the closure of its day sortation shift starting May 2. This includes 76 part-time hourly workers, 21 part-time management, and 2 full-time management staff. The company aims to mitigate job losses by offering alternative positions where possible. This move follows previous sortation shift closures in other states as part of a broader overhaul of UPS's U.S. network, which is expected to yield $1 billion in savings through efficiency improvements. Further cuts may occur, particularly in Indiana.
