Louisville, Ky. (WHAS11) - At least 300 UPS airline pilots are going to be taking some time off due to some furlough days.
UPS says they have been working with its union for the past year to cut operating costs and avoid furloughs.
UPS promised no furloughs in 2009 but recent discussions with the union have failed to create any cost cutting measures.
UPS employs about 2,800 pilots.
The furloughs will be phased in with the first 170 pilots getting notices in 2010.
They will be furloughed in May.
