Two-thirds of U.S. hourly retail associates to have full schedules by fiscal year-end
Walmart is working to shift more of its hourly store associates to full-time status.
Plans call for two-thirds of Walmart U.S.’ hourly store roles to be full-time by the close of its 2022 fiscal year at the end of January, the Bentonville, Ark.-based retail giant said Wednesday.
Announcing the move in a blog post, Drew Holler, senior vice president of Walmart U.S. people operations said the transition will represent “meaningful investments in our associates’ pay, hours and stability.” He noted that about 53% of Walmart’s U.S. hourly store workforce held full-time posts in 2016 and, with the planned shift, the company’s stores will have approximately 100,000 more full-time positions versus five years ago.
