Wal-Mart’s Wage and Hour Violations
Wal-Mart is currently facing more than 80 lawsuits at various stages of the legal process. Four class action lawsuits have either been certified or affirmed since May of this year, and trial in a fifth recently commenced. These cases reveal a common thread of a centralized scheduling system that advises store managers on “preferred” staffing levels to run their stores. Evidence and testimony littered throughout the cases indicate a “corporate culture” and systematic approach for cutting labor costs by dictating managers staff below the “preferred” staffing levels and rewarding managers for keeping labor costs down.
