FedEx to hire more than 300 workers for holiday shipping season

FedEx will be hiring more than 300 people in Denver to help its existing 400,000-staff workforce prepare for the busy holiday shipping season.

FedEx is increasing hours for some existing employees and increasing the workforce with seasonal positions as needed to maintain outstanding service during the peak holiday season.

FedEx expects to add more than 50,000 seasonal positions throughout its networks to help the holidays arrive this year. These positions include package handlers, drivers and other support positions.

The majority of these workers will be added as seasonal package handlers at FedEx Ground facilities, but there will be other opportunities during the holiday period and throughout the year.

Last year more than a third of the package handlers hired at FedEx Ground facilities retained employment with the company at the conclusion of the holiday season.
