Walmart said it is focusing on hiring seasonal workers, rather than permanent workers.
NEW YORK - Walmart plans to hire 40,000 U.S. workers for the holidays, a majority of them seasonal workers.
The move announced Wednesday comes as the nation’s largest retailer and largest private employer said it is in a stronger staffing position heading into the holidays than last year.Just like in past years, it will first offer current workers the opportunity to pick up additional shifts if they want to earn extra money for the holidays.
