Amazon has announced that it will be “eliminating” more than 18,000 roles at the company, extending a previously-announced round of layoffs that was set to impact some 10,000 workers.

While the announcement is significant in terms of the number of people impacted, it represents just 1.2% of Amazon’s 1.5 million global workforce.
