DHL will reduce staff by 600 in the United States

Due to poor market conditions DHL is reducing its staff in the US to try to improve its competitive position.

DHL announced that it will be reducing its parcel workforce by 600 employees due to poor market conditions in the United States.  The company stated that the reductions will be “achieved through reductions, attrition and the suspension of some existing open positions.”  DHL has struggled in the domestic market where both UPS and FedEx control the market. 

According to Hans Hickler, Chief Executive of DHL's U.S. business “this action is one of several measures we are taking to improve our competitive position in the U.S. market, which is strategic to our global growth plan."
