My son works as a delivery driver and he is getting paid $185 a day. Some days his route takes 7 hours to do and others only 5. The manager messaged all the drivers and told them that if they finished their routes before 6 pm, the following week they would get less shifts. My son usually works 3 or 4 days a week, and next week only has 2 shifts. Is the company legally allowed to reduce the shifts because the drivers finish early?
The manager will tell them that they have less routes next week, but he had already messaged them about shift reductions.

If your son's shifts regularly fluctuate from week to week then the employer can reduce his shifts on any given week.
