Walgreens is looking to add more than 9,500 full- and part-time and temporary roles in stores across the U.S., including customer service associates, pharmacy technicians and shift leads, as part of its coronavirus response.

The pharmacy chain also announced it would give bonuses – $300 for full-time and $150 for part-time hourly employees in stores and distribution centers – beginning in late April.

"Our store team members are working incredibly hard, in a very challenging and uncertain time and we’re grateful for all they do each day," Walgreens President Richard Ashworth said in a statement. "We play a critical role in responding to the pandemic and our team members, who are the face of Walgreens, are doing everything they can to support customers, patients and communities across America, who are relying on us at this critical time."
