Deliver with safety,
confidence, and support.
Amazon Flex's commitment to safety.
Our deep commitment to safety guides our approach to everything at Amazon Flex. Here are some of the ways we prioritise safety so you can earn and deliver with confidence.
Safe deliveries in the community
Safety first: You are in the driver’s seat when delivering with Amazon Flex, and your safety is our priority. If you arrive at a delivery location and do not feel safe, you can contact Support through the Amazon Flex app. We don’t expect you to ever make a delivery if you feel unsafe.
Safety recommendations: To help ensure the safety of Amazon Flex delivery partners, we strongly recommend Amazon Flex delivery partners to wear a high visibility safety vest and slip-resistant, closed-heel, and closed-toe shoes. High-visibility safety vests are available for you at any Amazon Logistics or Amazon Fresh station at no cost to you.

Customer and community accountability: If you have a safety concern, you can report it to Support through the Amazon Flex app. Reporting incidents to Support helps us research and follow up on them, to help keep you safe, and hold customers and community members accountable.
Sexual harassment policy: At Amazon, we believe everyone should be treated with respect and dignity. We do not tolerate inappropriate conduct, including discrimination or harassment, from anyone. Find more information about Amazon Flex’s sexual harassment policy here. You can make a confidential report through the Driver Escalations Hotline at EthicsPoint. Please report any violations, including theft, safety, harassment and discrimination any time here.
Support when you drive and deliver
Dedicated support: Our Support team is there for you if you ever need help when delivering. You can quickly connect with Support through the Amazon Flex app, and speak with someone from our dedicated Support team.
Emergency assistance: If you have an emergency when you’re delivering, the Emergency Help button is easy to access from the main menu in the Amazon Flex app. The Emergency Help button offers the option to contact 999 or the Amazon Emergency Helpline for assistance in reporting a safety concern or accident. Always call 999 before contacting the Amazon Emergency Helpline if you need emergency services.
Safety tips at your fingertips: You have on-demand access to safety videos and answers to “Frequently Asked Questions” (FAQs) in the Amazon Flex app. Anytime you’d like to review safety tips, just go to the "Resource Portal" tab from the main menu to find safety related materials. The Staying Safe section contains useful information to help keep you safe while delivering. You can choose whatever content you personally find most helpful.

Technology to help you stay safe
Pet alerts: You can check your Amazon Flex app for a paw print icon in the delivery notes to see if there might be a dog at your delivery stop. These paw print icons are added into the Amazon Flex app through the help of our customers and delivery partners who report this information. The Amazon Flex app also provides safety videos, answers to frequently asked questions, and information on pet safety support on how to stay safe when a dog, or any other pet is present.
Optimised maps: Amazon Flex maps helps you navigate and shows road closure alerts, so you can choose which route to take. You can also choose to set your maps to dark mode to reduce eye strain and help make the screen easier to read, especially at night. Additionally, you can download offline maps to your phone, and even set your device to have the Amazon Flex app automatically download offline maps whenever you are connected to Wi-Fi. This helps you to reliably get where you’re going no matter what mobile coverage is offered in the area.
Customer chat: You can call or text customers about their delivery through the Amazon Flex app. To protect your personal information, we keep your phone number hidden and customers simply see an Amazon number. The Amazon Flex app also has a ‘Notify of Arrival’ feature. With just a tap, you can notify customers of your arrival, and a message is sent to the customer asking them to secure any pets and clear any pathways.
