Amazon said Thursday it intends to recruit 150,000 new workers across the US to fulfill need in front of the busy holiday shopping season.

The openings, which incorporate full-time, seasonal and part-time roles, range from pressing and picking to sorting and shipping, the organization said. The declaration comes only days before Amazon is set to hold another Prime Day shopping event.

Amazon slopes up recruiting each holiday season, yet this year it is doing as such in a tight work market and with rising inflation coming down on organizations to raise compensation.

Last week, Amazon said it would raise hourly compensations for warehouse and delivery laborers. With the increase, Amazon employees can, on average, acquire more than $19 an hour in view of the position and location in the US, up from an average of $18 beforehand.

On Thursday, the organization said it will give extra sign-on bonuses to the recently reported holiday positions, ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 in select locations. Some of the states with the largest number of jobs accessible incorporate California, Illinois, Texas.

The recruiting news additionally comes in the midst of numerous high-profile unionization drives at Amazon warehouses, including at facilities for Alabama and New York. The Amazon Labor Union secured a historic victory in forming the first US labor union at a facility in Staten Island, New York earlier this year. One week from now, laborers at a different facility close to Albany, New York, are scheduled to vote to join a similar grassroots worker group.
