Amazon sees warehouse robots 'flattening' its hiring curve, according to internal document
77% Informative
Amazon has a growing fleet of warehouse robots to enhance safety and efficiency.
In an internal document, Amazon said these robots are critical to flattening its hiring curve.
This suggests Amazon is trying to use automation to slow the rate of new hiring, rather than replace existing workers.
The automation push is also a response to growing costs and possible labor shortages in Amazon 's warehouses.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy reaffirmed the company's commitment to automation during a February earnings call.
Analysts expect Amazon to continue to expand its warehouse network while upgrading the footprint toward next-gen robotics.
"We've already seen substantial value from our robotics innovations," Jassy said.
