[QUOTE="Mplayers2006, post: 5837280, member: 100002"] Network optimization, low package volume, overstaffing, and increasing wages are all contributing factors. In order to manage the surge in volume during the COVID phase, UPS expanded its workforce. We have been reworking our network to operate more effectively at the same time. We are lowering the head numbers while things get back to normal in an effort to preserve our profitability. This is essential since our workforce levels can no longer be supported by the volume. Furthermore, labor costs have gone up since COVID. Regarding the new contract, UPS agreed to a front-end loaded arrangement at a time when packages were declining. Even while it played a role, the new contract was not the only factor in the layoffs that occurred. [/QUOTE]
