Today we announced that we’re increasing the hourly wage for approximately 40,000 of our store associates! “We’re on a journey of developing our talent, simplifying and modernizing how we work, investing in our teams, and strengthening our culture,” said AnnMarie Mercer, Chief People Officer, Walmart Canada. We’ve also made a major investment in digital handheld devices for store associates. The devices will enable our associates to better support our customers by looking up items more quickly in our system and allowing for faster, real-time communication between associates to better facilitate customer requests.

“Walmart takes ordinary people and turns them into something they never thought they could be.” - Ashley Senyk, Store Manager, 3164 Leamington, Ontario Ashley never thought she’d be leading an entire store of associates when she first joined Walmart Canada 17 years ago. In fact, up until a few years ago, she didn’t think she would be either. But through her hard work and dedication and motivation from her coaches, she built a name for herself in the company and was recently promoted to Store Manager.

We recently held a panel discussion hosted by Walmart Canada’s Director of Enterprise Technology, Sabrina Ratheekan, with VP of Talent Management and CDEI, Jennifer (JP) Pierce MBA, CHRE, FLPI, Chief Information Officer, Michon Williams and Chief People Officer, AnnMarie Mercer. We discussed Walmart’s recent launch of our own Gen AI tool that helps simplify and accelerate tasks that can be tedious and time consuming for our associates. We also talked about the importance of knowing how to make the best use of AI powered tools and how Walmart is supporting associates in building critical Gen AI and tech skills as ways of working continue to evolve. At Walmart, we envision a future where Gen AI complements human creativity and strategic thinking, making jobs easier and more efficient for our associates. #GenAI #FutureofWork #Walmart #WalmartCanada

Introducing sensory-friendly hours at Walmart Canada! More than 33% of people experience sensory overload, meaning things like sound and moving images can be too intense to process and can cause discomfort or frustration. Every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from store opening until 10 a.m. local time, sensory-friendly hours help to provide a calmer experience by eliminating or reducing potential sensory stimuli. During these times, we’re turning off music and radio ads, pausing announcements and paging, as well as changing our TV wall screens to static images. Read more about how sensory-friendly hours are creating a more inclusive shopping experience here: https://lnkd.in/gVJe9pYp Joe Schrauder, Lina Nadar, Christel S., Phoebe Sequino, Gemma Adams, Amanda Moss, Sarah Kennedy, Derreck Cuschieri, Natalie Houlder, Natalie Jeffery, Lani Lindsay, Ramsha Hamid #CustomerExperience #SensoryFriendly #AccessibilityMatters #InclusiveShoppingExperience #Walmart #WalmartCanada
