UPS to cut 30,000 jobs and close 24 facilities as Amazon deliveries scale back

UPS announced on Jan 28 2026 it will cut up to 30 000 jobs—roughly six percent of its roughly 500 000‑strong global workforce—and shutter 24 warehouses and sort‑delivery hubs worldwide. The moves tie into a strategic re‑orientation after Amazon scaled back its parcel‑delivery contracts, prompting UPS to pull out of the Amazon‑for‑delivery business in North America and Europe. The company said the closures will affect sites in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain, with staff reductions to follow later in the year. UPS says the cuts will streamline its logistics network and reduce operating costs amid a shift in global e‑commerce delivery patterns.
