Home Depot announced they will spend $1 billion more on employees' wages annually!

A few months back, #HomeDepot pledged to spend $1.7 billion in temporary pay and benefits for staff working through the #Coronavirus crisis. They will be changing some of those benefits to permanent wage increases for frontline hourly workers.

Way to go, Home Depot!

I arranged a crucial first meeting of my client with Steven Spielberg. My client got the deal with Steven. This "when" was two sentences: I have so many stories of wonderful experiences. #veterans Pro bono attorney for Charles Liteky MOH Vietnam. Look him up.

Walmart is recognizing its employees by paying a special bonus of $300 per full-time employee and $150 per part-time employee.

Every hourly associate employed by the company as of March 1 will qualify, and it will pay out on April 2. In addition to that special bonus for hourly associates, the company will accelerate the next scheduled quarterly bonus for store, club and supply chain associates a month early. When it pays out in late April, it will help provide more cash in hand for associates sooner.

As part of responding to the current environment, Walmart is also hiring 150,000 new associates through the end of May to work in stores, clubs, distribution centers and fulfillment centers. These roles will be temporary at first, but many will convert to permanent roles over time. We’ve reached out to industry groups representing restaurants and hospitality to facilitate temporary roles that can be a bridge for their employees during this difficult time.
