Walmart Cuts Benefits For Most Part-Time Workers:
Walmart makes Scrooge look like a stumble-bum.
How much does any company, especially Wal-Mart need? How much is enough for the vultures?
Wal-Mart told The Associated Press that starting Jan. 1, it will no longer offer health insurance to employees who work less than an average of 30 hours a week. The move affects 30,000 employees, or about 5 percent of Wal-Mart’s total part-time workforce, but comes after the company already had scaled back the number of part-time workers who were eligible for health insurance coverage since 2011.
As of May 2013 the international retailer had $469 billion in sales and 2.2 million employees, including 1.3 million in the United States.
The off spring of Sam Walton who was the brain-child of the biggest employer on the planet are worth:
No. 6 Christy Walton (daughter-in-law), $35.4 billion
No. 7: Jim Walton (son), $33.8 billion
No. 8: Alice Walton (daughter), $33.5 billion
No. 9: S. Robson Walton (son), $33.3 billion
No. 95: Ann Walton Kroenke (niece), $4.7 billion
No. 110: Nancy Walton Laurie (niece), $4 billion
Total Walton family wealth: $144.7 billion.
My heart goes out to the Annie and Nan that are only worth in the 4 billion dollar bracket.
I wonder what Mr. Sam would have to say about the way his kids are running the business.
The true mark of an “honorable” person is one that shares in their wealth and treats their employees with respect. These blood sucking Waltons certainly are not a very good examples of that.
