Investing in Safety
At Amazon, safety is embedded in all that we do.


Investing in Safety
Our safety performance is possible because of the drive and commitment of our operations employees and our 8,000 safety professionals, who are dedicated to using the science of safety to solve complex problems and establish new industry best practices.

“I can still remember my first day at Amazon and the excitement I felt walking around the Fulfillment Center. I still have that same feeling today. The Day One thrill of Amazon’s speed, innovation, inclusion, and ability to deliver is still the same for me over six years later.”
AndrewSenior Regional Leader, WHS“Amazon has taught me how to be a better manager and a better safety professional. I have progressed through four different roles in five years and I’m now fulfilling my professional ambition and personal passion to work in training.
AngelaSafety Training Project Manager, WHS“I’ve been a first air responder in Rivers Pointe Fire District for 29 years—since I was a teenager—and have always enjoyed helping others. The skills I have acquired fit perfectly into helping Amazon’s Associates. In the current climate, as first aid responders and employees, we need to continue to be adaptable and assist others, performing tasks that others can’t.”
