Amazon Uses 750,000 Robots Instead of 100,000 Workers

Amazon has dramatically increased its use of automation, introducing over 750,000 robots to assist its employees.


This major change has led to the loss of around 100,000 jobs for humans since the company reached its highest employment level of 1.6 million in 2021.


Currently, the workforce stands at about 1.5 million employees.


The rise of robots in Amazon's operations has transformed how the company runs its warehouses and fulfills orders.


By automating many tasks, Amazon aims to improve efficiency and reduce costs. While this shift can enhance productivity, it also raises concerns about job security for many workers.


As robots take over routine tasks, the need for human labor decreases, resulting in fewer job opportunities.


However, Amazon argues that automation allows employees to focus on more complex and fulfilling roles that require human skills.


The company believes this change will create new job opportunities in other areas as it continues to grow.


As automation evolves, workers may need to adapt by acquiring new skills to stay relevant in the job market.


Ultimately, the impact of automation on employment will depend on how companies and employees navigate this changing landscape.
