Amazon Planning To Hire 100,000 Temporary Workers This Holiday Season

While Amazon continues to deflect criticism of its workplace culture, the retailer announced plans to nearly double its workforce this holiday season: adding 100,000 temporary workers to its roster.

The new short-term employees will join about 90,000 current workers (human and robot) at the company’s 70 warehouses and shipping hubs around the country, CNBC reports.

The seasonal hirings represent a 25% increase from last year when the company hired about 80,000 short-term workers.

Amazon executives say the temporary positions are in addition to the recently added 25,000 jobs the company filled in recent months.
