This role offers comprehensive safety training and development as you embark on your journey to becoming a distinguished safety leader.

Work Environment:

Fulfillment Workflow:
To better understand our operations, we can break down the workflow into three primary segments:
1. First Mile: This stage involves storing products and preparing them for picking when an order is placed.
2. Middle Mile: Here, orders are sorted and prepared for distribution to specific areas, ensuring efficient logistics and transportation.
3. Last Mile: This final stage focuses on delivering products directly to customers' doorsteps, ensuring a seamless delivery experience.

Job Requirements:
As a WHSS, you will be responsible for:
- Coordinating and executing all facets of Amazon's Global Safety Program.
- Identifying and reporting compliance issues, safety risks, and improvement opportunities through regular audits.
- Facilitating incident investigation processes.
- Maintaining necessary documentation to comply with Amazon and OSHA regulations.

- Innovating process improvements and managing actions to completion.
- Training team members on safety tasks and protocols.

Qualifications:

- A degree in Health Science, Safety Engineering, Health & Safety, Safety Management, Business Administration, or a related field.
- Interest or prior experience in safety-related roles.
- Strong communication skills, both verbal and written, particularly regarding health and safety matters.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.
- Strong analytical skills with a proven ability to solve problems.

Commitment to Diversity:
Amazon is dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate based on race, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, protected veteran status, disability, age, or other legally protected status.

Compensation:
