About 100 part-time employees are being cut from a UPS facility in Rockford, but full-time employees are said to be unaffected. UPS points to the current economic recession as the cause of a drop in volume, which resulted in lay-offs.
The UPS facility, which is located at Chicago Rockford International Airport, apparently may call back laid-off employees when business picks up.
600 seasonal employees were also laid off at the end of December, which is standard procedure. The UPS facility was added to Rockford International Airport in the early 1990s and is located just off the Kishwaukee River.
