""The Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment today received a notification of proposed collective redundancies from Amazon Ireland," a spokesperson for the Government said. "Any further queries should be directed to the company." "In response to global challenges, a number of companies have announced reductions in overall staffing numbers recently and there can be an effect on Irish operations," the Government spokesperson said."
""That starts with offering most US-based employees 90 days to look for a new role internally. Timing will vary internationally based on local and country level requirements. Then, for teammates who are unable to find a new role at Amazon or who choose not to look for one, we'll provide transition support including severance pay, outplacement services, health insurance benefits, as applicable, and more.""
Amazon announced reductions affecting approximately 16,000 roles globally and has notified the Irish state of proposed collective redundancies. The notification to Ireland may seek to remove at least 300 roles across company operations, with the Government confirming receipt of the notification. Amazon will offer most US-based employees 90 days to search internally; timing for international employees will vary by country. For employees who do not find internal roles, Amazon will provide transition support including severance pay, outplacement services and applicable health insurance benefits. The company cited reducing layers, increasing ownership and removing bureaucracy as drivers for the move.
