About the role
Job Overview
You’ll be part of the dedicated Amazon team that is the first stop on the journey from the warehouse. Our fast-paced roles take place in a Sortation Centre. You will be sorting, scanning, and stacking packages on pallets, helping to get customer orders ready for delivery. We offer both full-time and part-time schedules, but because most of the shifts are part-time, you are in control of your schedule — choose shifts that work best for you now and adjust in the future, as needed.
Duties Responsibilities
Some of your duties may include:
- Receive and sort inventory
- Get customer orders ready for delivery
- Use technology like scanners, computers, and handheld printers
You’ll also need to be able to:
- Lift up to 49 pounds (22 kg)
- Stand, walk, push, pull, squat, bend, and reach during shifts
- Use carts, dollies, hand trucks, and other gear to move items around
- Go up and down stairs (where applicable)
- Work at a height of up to 40 feet (12m) on a mezzanine (where applicable)
What it’s like at an Amazon Sortation Centre
- Safety. Your safety is important to us. All teams share safety tips daily and we make sure protective gear is available onsite. Please note, wearing a hard hat and/or safety shoes while working is a requirement for some roles at certain sites.
- Surroundings. You’ll be working around moving machines – order pickers, stand-up forklifts, turret trucks, and mobile carts.
- Activity. Some activities may require standing in one place for long periods, walking around, or climbing stairs.
- Temperature.Even with climate controls, temperatures can vary between 15°C and 30°C in some parts of the warehouse; on hot days, temperatures can be over 30°C in the truck yard or inside trailers.
- Noise level. It can get noisy at times. We provide hearing protection if you need it.
- Dress code. Relaxed, with a few rules to follow for safety. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required and protective safety footwear are required in select business units. All employees who work in areas that require safety shoes will be given a subsidy for one pair each year.
