At Amazon, nothing is more important to us than the safety of our people. We constantly strive to innovate and improve on our on-site practices to offer you a secure, modern, convenient and enjoyable workplace. We benchmark against UK national data, published by the Health & Safety Executive, confirming we have over 40% fewer injuries on average than other transportation and warehousing businesses in the UK.
During the pandemic, with guidance from the World Health Organization, we’ve implemented a series of additional health measures (more than 150) at our sites around the world to keep our employees, partners and customers safe and healthy. This includes purchasing items like masks, hand sanitizer, thermal cameras, additional handwashing stations, as well as COVID-19 testing supplies. We’ve also adjusted our practices at our fulfilment centres, so employees can maintain a safe distance from co-workers.
