If you are eager to implement effective safety improvements, inform managers of compliance issues and safety improvement opportunities, apply to join our team in Amazon Operations as a Workplace Health and Safety Specialist (WHSS)! You are provided extensive safety training and development as an entry level WHSS towards becoming an exceptional safety leader.
Do you have the skills to fill this role Read the complete details below, and make your application today.
This role will require 100% on-site attendance located within one of our Network Distribution Centers, and will not be a virtual - work from home position.
At Amazon, we thrive in a dynamic and rapidly evolving work environment, and our approach to safety is no exception. Just like the organization itself, our Safety department operates with agility and adaptability.
As WHS Specialist, you will have the invaluable opportunity to cultivate your own agility, learning to swiftly adjust strategies, plans, and solutions to keep pace with ever-changing business demands.
You will effortlessly collaborate and lead diverse functional teams and stakeholders across all levels of the organization.
Our guiding principles include embracing open-mindedness, prioritizing customer satisfaction, fostering innovation, promoting empowerment, leveraging advanced technologies, and fostering a strong sense of camaraderie within our team.
These principles are what drive our WHS team to deliver cutting-edge fulfillment solutions.
To better understand our operations, let's break down the workflow into three major lanes : first mile, middle mile, and last mile.
This step focuses on providing a seamless and convenient delivery experience for our customers.
It's important to note that while these lanes may have slight building variations depending on the specific fulfillment center, one constant remains : our unwavering vision and dedication to serving our customers.
We strive to continuously improve and optimize our fulfillment processes to ensure customer satisfaction and exceed their expectations.
Here are the types of facilities in each mile segment of fulfillment :
Fulfillment Centers (North America Customer Fulfillment - NACF Network) : Large facilities with many associates, that house goods, both big and small (first-mile).
These are the types of building that typically come to mind when you hear fulfillment and may contain robotics technology or house the products available when you shop Amazon.com!
Sort Centers (North America Sort Center - NASC Network) : Medium-sized facilities, localized close to larger markets, where goods are sorted for delivery (middle-mile).
These buildings receive packaged orders and help the last-mile network deliver products on-time more efficiently. Orders are sorted by zip code, region, and size.
These buildings operate most similarly to a regional post office or large third-party logistics building.
Delivery Stations (Amazon Logistics - AMZL Network) : Smaller facilities with fewer associates, localized close to larger markets, where goods are delivered directly to customers (last mile).
This is the last stop in the life of an order, where it is packed onto a delivery truck before heading out to the customer’s address.
Locations and Placement :
PLEASE NOTE : This role will require the flexibility to relocate, as we prioritize placing candidates based on business need.
Candidates’ placement preferences will be considered, and recruiters will do their best to accommodate location placements.
