Amazon seeks 100,000 more workers to address home shopping surge

Amazon has said it needs to hire 100,000 people across the US to keep up with a crush of orders as the coronavirus spreads and keeps more people at home, shopping online.

The online retailer said it would also temporarily raise pay by $2 an hour through the end of April for hourly employees.

Employees in the UK and other European countries will receive a similar raise.
