Amazon’s Post

Nothing to see here. Just a normal day at the office. 👀

Last month, over 116,000 Amazonians from over 50 countries came together to volunteer for our Global Month of Volunteering! 💙 Over 4,000 events took place, which supported more than 400 nonprofits and community organizations. From cleaning parks, to donating school supplies and clothing, to building houses for families in need, to assembling wish boxes for kids, to delivering meals to local food banks, Amazonians showed up for their communities. The impact of this global volunteer effort goes beyond borders, creating ripples of positive change in communities around the world. 🌎 A heartfelt thank you to every Amazonian worldwide for their time, energy, and impactful contributions during Global Month of Volunteering 2024. 👏

♻️ Huge update on our path to reduce plastic packaging. We’ve officially replaced 95% of the plastic air pillows from delivery packaging in North America with paper filler. With this shift, we’ll avoid nearly 15 BILLION plastic air pillows every year. That means for Prime Day next month, nearly all our deliveries won't come with plastic air pillows. The filler paper that replaces them is curbside recyclable. ♻️ 🌍 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gwMRNeQC

This slip simulator makes you feel super goofy, but it's really effective in increasing delivery driver safety. 🚚 📦 In fact, it reduces delivery driver slips and falls by 30%, and drivers consistently rank it as one of the most fun parts of their safety training. It's a kinetic learning module, AKA learn by doing, for drivers to learn how to safely walk on slippery surfaces. Our teams are rolling it out to delivery stations across North America ahead of Peak.
