Over the past few years, Walmart workers who are members of the Organization United for Respect at Walmart (OUR Walmart) have spoken out about their struggle to support their families and contribute to their local economies because of low wages, insufficient hours and ongoing efforts to silence workers who are speaking out for better jobs.
Members of OUR Walmart have also spoken out about chronic understaffing in stores which has led to reports of empty shelves and lower customer satisfaction - and WALMART LISTENED.
We want to make sure as many associates as possible know about this exciting change that OUR Walmart has moved the company to make.
Talk to associates, tell them about OUR Walmart’s victory and Walmart’s new policy and invite them to share their experience of lack of hours and unpredictable scheduling on-line.
Engage customers by asking them let workers and managers in the store now that more hours for workers would mean better customer experience at Walmart.
