2020 was difficult for many – with more people than ever before facing isolation, hunger and homelessness in the communities that surround our Fulfilment Centres (FC) and Delivery Stations. Over the Christmas period, the team got involved to support charities and not-for-profit organisations that help people in need in these areas.

2020 was a year of investment in Australia as we grew our local operations.

The holiday season is upon us, and as people across the country are busy in their festive shopping, we get you up close and personal with some of the people who make it possible for you to receive the Amazon boxes that arrive at your door.

I’ve been at Amazon for 22 holiday seasons and this one is definitely unique, to say the least. I’m grateful to our teams who continue to play a vital role serving their communities. As we head into the peak of the holiday season, we want to share our appreciation through another special recognition bonus, totaling more than US $500 million for our front-line associates. Australian Operations associates who are working from December 1 to December 31 will qualify for a bonus of AUD $600. Combined with other holiday pay incentives, in this quarter alone we are investing over US $750 million in additional pay for our front-line hourly workforce. This brings our total spent on special bonuses and incentives for our teams globally to over US $2.5 billion in 2020, including a US $500 million thank you bonus earlier this year. Our teams are doing amazing work serving customers’ essential needs, while also helping to bring some much-needed holiday cheer for socially-distanced families around the world. I’ve never been more grateful for—or proud of—our teams. Thank you. Dave
