UPS In Hebron To Layoff 433 Workers

Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 6:29 AM

(Hebron, Ky.) - More than 500 people will lose their jobs after UPS closes a warehouse in Boone County.

 

UPS notified the Kentucky Office of Employment and Training on January 18 it will issue layoffs at its Supply Chain Solutions Building K warehouse at 1505 Worldwide Boulevard in Hebron by April 1.

 

The move will affect 542 employees according to the WARN notice submitted by the company. About 430 of the workers will be offered separation allowance or another position if it becomes available, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported.

 

The remaining 100 or so workers will remain at the distribution center.

 

UPS says the move is due to losing a major account at that distribution center. The company said that account was Zulily, a Seattle-based online store, WCPO-TV reported.
