Global delivery company DHL is forced to cut 9500 jobs within United States but will continue to operate business to other countries. The company is dropping the US based or domestic-only jobs to minimize future uncertainties.
"We see [a] significant shortfall in the U.S. part of our express business due to the fact that the economy has weakened deeply," said Frank Appel, chief executive of DHL's parent company Deutsche Post World Net. "We have taken a massive action in the U.S."
"As you can imagine, this was not an easy decision," said Appel, speaking by webcast from corporate headquarters in Bonn, Germany. "It has a massive impact on jobs for our people."
