Amazon’s new fulfillment center in Tulsa is officially open for business along with two new delivery stations in Oklahoma City.

The 600,0000-square-foot Tulsa fulfillment center at 4040 N. 125th E Ave. opened for the first time last week.

The state-of-the-art center will employ more than 1,500 full-time workers who will work alongside technology created by Amazon Robotics. Employees at the fulfillment center will pick, pack and ship small items to customers such as books, household items and toys.

Amazon’s two new delivery stations in Oklahoma City have officially opened for business. One 100,000 square-foot building is at 6101 SW 44th Street in Oklahoma City and another 300,000 square-foot building is at 6801 S Air Depot Blvd. in Oklahoma City.

Delivery stations conduct the last mile of Amazon’s order fulfillment process. Packages are transported to delivery stations from Amazon fulfillment and sortation centers, and then loaded into vehicles for delivery to customers. The delivery stations will create hundreds of permanent, full-time and part-time jobs, in addition to offering entrepreneurs the opportunity to build their own small businesses delivering Amazon packages, and independent contractors the flexibility to be their own boss and create their own schedule delivering for Amazon Flex.

Amazon’s pays a $15 minimum wage and offers full-time employees healthcare from day one, 401(k) with 50 percent match, up to 20 weeks paid parental leave and Amazon’s Career Choice program, which pre-pays 95% of tuition for courses in high-demand fields.

Amazon has pledged to invest over $700 million to provide additional training for 100,000 U.S. employees for in-demand jobs.

The company invested about $4 billion from April through June on COVID-related initiatives to ensure its associates across the globe, including the associates who work across Amazon’s Oklahoma facilities, are safe. This includes spending more than $800 million in the first half of the year on safety supplies such as masks, hand sanitizer, thermal cameras, sanitizing wipes, gloves, adding disinfectant spraying in buildings and procuring COVID testing supplies.

Additionally, Amazon has redeployed employees from their typical roles to perform safety-related tasks and audits at sites around the world from “social distancing ambassadors” to team members helping with temperature checks.

The Tulsa fulfillment center and Oklahoma City delivery stations will continue hiring over the next few weeks.

Hiring events and interviews are by appointment only and positions are posted every Friday until all positions have been filled. Interested candidates can visit https://amazon.force.com/ to apply online.
