The Guardian reported on Wednesday that Walmart offered its employees a 10 percent and 15 percent in-store discount for working the holidays. The 15 percent discount is only available for employees during two days in December, according to a flyer the publication obtained.
In a statement, Walmart told Business Insider that no longer offering employees holiday pay has been its policy for a few years.
“We simplified our paid time-off policies in 2016 to combine vacation, holiday, sick and personal time into one bucket,” a spokesperson told Business Insider. “As part of that change, we no longer offer holiday pay.”
Overtime pay is not legally required for people who work “on weekends, holidays or regular days of rest, unless overtime is worked on such days,” according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

Одна из богатейших компаний США и самая богатая семья США своим работникам отказалась платить сверхурочные за работу в праздники, а вместо этого предоставила 10-15% скидку на товары в магазине и 15% только в течении двух дней в декабре. При этом все легально, все проплачено тадепутам, которые напринимали "макарошек" в виде законов. А - алчность.
