FedEx has disclosed another round of layoffs in North Texas, this time affecting dozens of workers at a Fort Worth-area facility, according to new state filings.
A Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) filing submitted to the Texas Workforce Commission shows that FedEx Corporation plans to lay off 89 employees at a facility listed in Fort Worth, with separations scheduled to begin March 2, 2026.
The filing is dated December 29, 2025, and lists the site in Tarrant County within the North Central Texas Workforce Development Area.
The layoffs appeared in the Texas WARN database on January 1, 2025, according to the database entry. The filing does not publicly specify the precise street address of the affected facility or identify which job classifications will be impacted.
The Dallas Express reached out to the Texas Workforce Commission to request a copy of the WARN letter and additional details on the exact location of the layoffs and the positions affected. The commission did not respond before publication.
Under the federal WARN Act, employers with 100 or more full-time employees are generally required to provide at least 60 days’ written notice ahead of certain mass layoffs or plant closings. The law is intended to give workers time to seek new employment, pursue retraining, and prepare for the loss of income, according to summaries of the statute provided by the Galo Law legal blog.
The WARN Act applies when an employer plans to lay off at least 50 workers at a single site of employment, subject to specific thresholds and exceptions. Employers must notify affected employees, any union representatives, the Texas Workforce Commission, and local workforce development officials. Certain exceptions allow for shorter notice periods, though employers are still required to provide as much notice as practicable.
The newly disclosed Fort Worth-area layoffs follow a series of recent FedEx job reductions across North Texas.
In a separate WARN filing published in November, the company said it would eliminate 856 positions tied to the permanent closure of a Coppell logistics facility by spring 2026, DX reported. That shutdown was attributed to a customer’s decision to transition operations to a different third-party logistics provider, the company said in its letter to state officials.
Earlier in 2025, FedEx Supply Chain Logistics & Electronics reported additional layoffs affecting hundreds of workers at facilities in Fort Worth, Garland, and Plano, according to prior WARN filings and local reports. Those reductions came amid broader changes in the shipping and logistics sector, which has seen companies restructure networks and consolidate operations.
FedEx recently faced scrutiny for its embrace of H-1B labor following a multi-billion-dollar federal contract, DX reported.
