In the past two years, Amazon has publicly demonstrated diversity goals aimed at making the company look more like society as a whole, including increasing the number of women in senior technical jobs and doubling the number of black employees. The company also faces several lawsuits by women who have alleged harassment, discrimination and bullying. Amazon has denied wrongdoing.
The Seattle-based e-commerce giant employed about 379,000 more people in the U.S. in October 2020 than it did a year earlier, according to the reports. Some of this figure likely reflects new hiring, but the period also coincides with a few highly organized hiring surges in Amazon s logistics ranks as the company sought to keep up with dramatic demand from domestic shoppers.
Hispanic, Asian, and other minority laborers Helpers accounted for 61% of the additional employees, the data show. Advocates for gender representation in corporate America have pushed companies to proactively release that data.

Amazon also regularly posted its own demographic data for employees on its own websites.

In 2020, a third of black employee ratio in Amazon s workforce Helpers category accounted for, but 11% of managers and 3.6% of executives.
