Nearly 20 facilities across Italy would be affected, but service levels and full network connectivity would be maintained.
The company, as part of its Deliver! improvement programme, would invest in depot sorting and IT and enhance customer experience via. better customer-facing and operational processes. TNT Express employs about 3,000 people in Italy. The changes are anticipated to result in a reduction of around 850 positions.
