    "excerpt": "Oct 7 (Reuters) - United Parcel Service on Wednesday said it is hiring 100,000 seasonal employees across hundreds of US locations as it prepares for this year's holiday shipping season. Here are some details: • The holiday season is the busiest period for parcel delivery companies, during which daily volumes tend to double. • Shippers and most retailers boost the hiring of temporary workers during the period from late November to early January. Advertisement • The seasonal workers will help sort, move and deliver packages during the holiday rush, UPS said. • The holiday hiring comes even as UPS has shrunk its permanent workforce through the year. • In January, the company said it would cut up to 30,000 operational jobs and close 24 facilities in 2026 in a bid to scale down shipments for its largest customer, Amazon, and shift towards more profitable shipments.
