Package Handler (Warehouse) – FedEx – Woodbridge, ON

FedEx is looking for a Package Handler to join their team at the Woodbridge, Ontario facility located at 45 Di Poce Way. This is a hands-on, physical role at one of Canada’s most recognized logistics and courier operations — a great fit for someone who works well in a team, isn’t afraid to get moving, and thrives in a busy warehouse setting.

As a Package Handler, you’ll be right at the heart of FedEx’s sorting and distribution operation, responsible for loading, unloading, and sorting packages by hand throughout each shift. Depending on the needs of the operation, you may rotate through various positions including Loader, Unloader, Palletizer, SWAK (Scan Weigh and Key), and Quality Assurance — keeping things fresh and keeping the operation running smoothly.

About the Role: Package Handler

This position involves physically handling packages on a continuous, repetitive basis during shifts that typically run 3 to 5 hours. You’ll use hand-to-surface methods to load and unload packages from delivery vehicles, trailers, pallets, and conveyor systems. Package Handlers may also be assigned to specialized roles such as Package Handler Trainer — responsible for training fellow PHs on safe and efficient handling techniques — or Package Handler – Air, which involves a multi-step inspection process to ensure air-restricted packages are handled in compliance with regulations.

Working at a FedEx facility means following strict safety standards at all times. You’ll be working in an environment with variable temperatures and elevated noise levels, so physical readiness and attention to safety protocols are key. Teamwork and clear communication with your fellow package handlers and supervisors are essential to keeping the sort running efficiently shift after shift.

Benefits and Salary

This is a part-time position (PPT) with a schedule running Sunday to Saturday with flexibility required, up to 30 hours per week. FedEx is known for offering competitive compensation alongside its broader commitment to employee wellbeing. As part of a globally recognized company, team members benefit from working within a culture that prioritizes inclusion, diversity, and taking care of each other. Specific pay rate details were not listed in this posting.
