The shift schedule is flexible — Monday to Thursday from 15:00 to 18:30, and Friday from 17:00 to 22:00 — making it a manageable option for those seeking part-time or supplemental income.

Day-to-day, you’ll be working in a fast-paced warehouse environment, handling inbound packages, operating equipment, and keeping shipments moving efficiently.

About the Role: Package Handler – Import

As a Package Handler on the import team, your core responsibility is keeping packages moving through the facility accurately and safely. You’ll be loading and unloading trailers and package cars, scanning and sorting shipments, and stocking packages in the appropriate areas.

This role requires good physical stamina — you’ll be lifting packages up to 70 lbs (32 kg) — as well as the ability to memorize postal codes and follow UPS’s established package handling methods. The work is roughly 3 hours per day, though availability across flexible shift hours is required. Communication on-site is primarily in French (approximately 90%), with some English (10%), so a basic level of French is expected.

UPS also offers tuition reimbursement of up to $3,000, making this a great option for students or those looking to continue their education while working. Note that conditions may apply and the hourly bonus is subject to change at UPS Canada’s discretion.
