感恩节已经成为商家必争的一个重要购物季,然而,沃尔玛的员工却因为对工资不满,同时也因为希望能与家人共度佳节,集体抵制节日加班。刚刚过去这个感恩节,沃尔玛的劳资双方过得都不痛快!
本周,“我们的沃尔玛”也向劳资委员会提出了投诉,认为托瓦尔的言论属于非法威胁,目的是要阻止沃尔玛员工参加示威。 不管有没有示威,沃尔玛可能早就跟消费者达成了共识。因为早在本月初,沃尔玛便宣布,将为最受欢迎的三件商品提供供应担保,凡是在感恩节当天一个小时的时段内,在沃尔玛店铺内排队购物的消费者,公司“保证”这三件产品有货。 译者:刘进龙/汪皓 |
OUR Walmart filed its own complaint with the labor board this week, arguing that Tovar's comment amounted to an illegal threat directed at discouraging its workers from protesting. Protests or no, Wal-Mart may have sealed the deal with its customers when it announced earlier this month that it "guarantees" the top three wish list items for those who are in a Walmart store and in line during a one-hour window on Thanksgiving Day. |
