Logistics behemoth FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX) has unveiled a plan to streamline its operations across Europe, aiming to reduce structural costs significantly.
物流巨頭FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX)公佈了一個計劃，旨在精簡其歐洲各地業務，以顯著降低結構成本。這個重組計劃的目標是減少1,700到2,000個職位，主要是在公司的後勤和商業團隊內。整合策略涉及消除多個職位，併合並團隊，以提高受影響部門的效率。
The restructuring initiative targets reducing 1,700 to 2,000 positions, primarily within the company's back-office and commercial teams.

As part of the restructuring, FedEx plans to centralize certain functions into shared activity centers located in strategically chosen countries.
重組過程將遵守歐洲和當地勞動法，諮詢將根據具體國家的情況進行。這些諮詢的時間表將在該地區各不相同，以確保向受影響的團隊成員傳達所有變更。
Richard W. Smith, chief operating officer, International and chief executive officer, Airline, Federal Express Corp, said, "FedEx is transforming to best match changing market dynamics and meet the needs of our customers."
FedEx歐洲總裁Karen Reddington表示:"這些對於任何企業來說都是困難的變化，我們一直將受影響的團隊成員及其家庭放在首位。"
The restructuring process will adhere to European and local labor laws, with consultations set to occur on a country-specific basis. The timelines for these consultations will vary across the region, ensuring that all changes are communicated to affected team members.
