• Up to 35% of those hired seasonally over the last three years have permanent jobs with the company

UPS (NYSE: UPS) announced today that it expects to hire about 95,000 seasonal employees to support the anticipated increase in package volume that will begin in November and continue through January 2018.

“Our seasonal jobs often lead to permanent employment and even careers for some,” said CEO David Abney. “We offer flexible shifts and full- and part-time positions. If you are a student, a working mom or just looking to make extra money for the holidays, we have a job for you.”

The company attributes momentum to its network of convenient locations, diverse franchise opportunities, and a focus on supporting small businesses

The UPS Store, Inc., the nation’s largest franchise system of retail shipping, print and business service centers, is now 5,000+ locations strong, the company announced today.

“The franchise now has a store within 10 miles of 84 percent of the U.S. population,” said Tim Davis, president of The UPS Store. “And with the benefit of a solid value proposition, continued innovation, committed franchisees and the backing of the UPS® brand, the prospect for growth in the years ahead is positive.”
