Amazon Offering 125,000 Full-time Jobs to Seasonal Employees

Plans to invest $4 billion in staff safety
Published on: 

In March, Amazon announced the hiring of 175,000 roles across its operations network to help provide for communities and keep as many people as possible working during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Like other companies, Aamzon hired these individuals for seasonal roles to meet a surge in demand and, for many, there was the hope of returning back to their previous companies once states began to re-open.

As the long-term picture becomes more clear, Amazon is providing the opportunity for 125,000 seasonal workers to stay with Amazon and transition into a regular, full-time role beginning in June.

Regular, full-time roles at Amazon come with a comprehensive benefits package starting on day one, a minimum wage of at least $15 an hour, and access to training programs like Career Choice that make it easier to springboard into a different career at Amazon or other companies.

Amazon is investing nearly $4 billion to keep their employees safe and help them deliver for people across communities.
