The Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative (ASDI) helps researchers, scientists and innovators around the world advance their work on sustainability-related research. The programme provides publicly available, free access to important scientific data that can otherwise be hard for researchers to access or analyse. The programme also supports innovators with cloud grants and technical expertise.

We strive to be Earth’s best employer. This begins with offering competitive starting wages in locations around the world and continues with benefits, support, and opportunities to help employees reach their full potential.

Safety is integral to everything we do at Amazon, and we strive to be safer every day for our employees, partners and communities. Our work environments allow our employees, regardless of background, skill level, or experience, to work with confidence.

We believe all employees should have the opportunity to learn new skills, grow and build their careers as they develop their professional journeys. Some employees focus on skills that benefit their work at Amazon, and some focus on skills that benefit their long-term career aspirations.

With more than 1.6 million direct employees worldwide, employee engagement is fundamental to our success. Our goal is to hear from and listen to all of our employees. We have a variety of engagement, feedback and remediation mechanisms that help us continually improve our workplace experience.

Sustainability Ambassadors are sustainability-minded Amazon employees who work to amplify global, companywide efforts at the local level. Ambassadors lead projects on Amazon campuses and create virtual engagement opportunities to inspire fellow employees, both at work and at home. The programme also serves as a community for sharing best practices among teams in different settings and locations.

We believe that building a sense of belonging, value, and opportunity is integral to people thriving in their lives and at work – and to what we can achieve as a company. We take an intersectional approach to the policies, programmes and strategies we create for our employees, selling partners, suppliers and customers to build inclusion into our business.

We’re committed to increasing representation of employees from historically under-represented backgrounds at every level of our organisation. To do so, we focus on hiring, retention, growth, development and promotion.

Amazon devices and services are a part of everyday life for millions of customers around the world. Our devices inform, entertain and connect our customers, and we’re working hard to make them more sustainable. That includes helping customers reduce their impact on the environment through our products and services.

We evaluate our supply chain to identify the industries, countries and issues where we have the greatest opportunities to identify and address risks and have a positive impact on workers. We work closely with our suppliers around the world, and consistently work to identify partnerships and programmes to help our suppliers invest in worker wellbeing and safe workplaces.
