On March 16, we announced that Amazon would hire 100,000 full-time and part-time employees on our operating network to keep as many people as possible working during the coronavirus pandemic, and the company would invest more than $ 350 million dollars around the world to raise the salaries of our teams during this crisis. Today, we are proud to announce that our initial commitment of 100,000 jobs has been fulfilled and that these new employees are working at sites across the United States. We continue to see increased demand as our teams support their communities, and we will continue to hire, creating an additional 75,000 jobs to help serve customers during this unprecedented period.
