A UPS worker in Ohio has been fired after he was photographed in blackface, company officials confirmed.

The unidentified female employee who worked in Sharonville was terminated after an image was posted to Facebook showing her dressed in blackface while wearing an oversize red coat, thick red lipstick and a red bandanna in her hair, similar to the offensive “mammy” caricature that rose to prominence in minstrel shows and the Jim Crow era.

“The company has strict policies against harassment and discrimination, and has terminated this individual’s employment with the company,” UPS spokeswoman Kim Krebs told the Cincinnati Enquirer. “UPS has no tolerance for hate, bigotry or prejudice.”

Krebs said she was unsure if the woman had gone to work in the costume, although a since-deleted Facebook post alleged that she had.

“She’s a white woman and she came to work at UPS in Sharonville,” the post read.

Stephanie Milton, who lives nearby, said she saw the image circulating on social media and was “creeped the hell out” by it.

“How is that funny?” Milton told WXIX. “How is it a costume, you know? There’s plenty of black faces out here working hard. What sense does it make? It’s offensive just because you don’t see black people out here trying to be white … It just makes no sense to me.”

Eric Jackson, program director of black studies at Northern Kentucky University, said seeing the woman wearing the racial caricature evoked a painful past dating back to the 1800s.

“It’s taking African-American images and moving it to a stereotype and brings it to the forefront,” Jackson said. “It’s the most obscene negative over-the-top images.”

Jackson said he believes most people who dress in blackface today are unaware of its exploitative and derogatory connotations.

“I know it’s not taught in school because that’s one of the periods during the Reconstruction Period that no one really talks about,” Jackson told WXIX.

The UPS employee was photographed just days after a white elementary school teacher in Iowa was photographed in blackface at a Halloween party. Megan Luloff, a first-grade teacher at Walcott Elementary & Intermediate School, was portraying Lawfanduh, a black character from the 2004 movie “Napoleon Dynamite.”

Luloff later said in a statement released by her attorneys that she never heard of the offensive practice or its controversial history, claiming she never meant to offend anyone.

“At no point during her preparation for the party, or her participation at the event, did Megan ever intend to mock the character’s ethnicity or take any action intended to be offensive to anyone,” the statement read. “At this point in time Megan had never heard the term ‘Blackface’ nor did she know the history of the term. If she had that knowledge she never would have participated in such a way that she deeply regrets her actions.”

Luloff remained employed by the Davenport Community School District as of Wednesday, a spokeswoman confirmed to The Post.
