The employees on Amazon's operations side received a text message Sunday evening that they are "recommended" to wear a mask to work. 

However, Amazon will only have "limited" quantities of masks available to employees and they will have to ask a manager for the mask. The Centers for Disease Control recommended Americans on April 3 to wear a mask when they leave their homes.
