More than 700 to be laid off as U.S. Postal Service terminates contract for Aurora mail hub

"...Alan Ritchey, contractor running the Denver Regional Transfer Hub, said it will let go of 729 workers on Feb. 28 ...Alan Ritchey Inc., a trucking and distribution company based in Valley View, Texas, informed the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment that it will lay off the 729 employees at the hub, located at 20500 E. Colfax Ave. in Aurora, on Feb. 28.

“This layoff will be permanent, and the Company’s operations will permanently cease. Affected employees are not represented by a union and bumping rights (that is, the right to avoid termination by displacing another employee) do not exist. However, employees may apply for positions at other Company facilities,” Robby Ritchey, the company’s CEO, wrote in a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, or WARN, letter to the state on Tuesday."
