Q&A
What if I decide to return an item or cancel my order?
If you choose to return an item or cancel an order paid for with a product voucher, Amazon will refund the balance back to the product voucher – you will not receive the balance back in a gift card or on a debit/credit card.
What if I don’t get my voucher code?
Please submit a request to Human Resources through the AskHR Portal.
What if I have issues with the Amazon voucher once it’s applied to my account?
Please contact Amazon directly at (888) 280-4331.
What if I don’t have an Amazon account?
An Amazon Account is required to use the Amazon Product Voucher. You will be prompted to create an Amazon account and will not be required to provide a credit or debit card.
What if my partner/spouse/ both parents of the child work at the hospital?
Only one product voucher will be provided for each child.
What if I don’t want an Amazon voucher? Is there another option?
Employees are not required to participate in this program. The voucher program is an optional benefit for new parent/foster parents.
Will I be taxed?
Yes – federal regulations stipulate that employee’s pay the required and standard taxation on the face value ($80.00) of this voucher.
