They'll have the same amount of money as if they were working, for two months. And after that they're eligible for severance if they haven't found work. That's more than fairWhat are the job markets in those areas?Paid vacation? Lol. I'm sure they're rolling in the deep with that money.
Here's what Walmart has said:
"Walmart hasn't applied for any permits there yet because they first need to determine what repairs are needed, Sutton said. "

So they had to close these stores down for 6 months without knowing what repairs are even needed?
What do you think "try to apply at other stores" means? Are these other stores seriously understaffed that they can absorb all these extra-employees? Or maybe Walmart is not an efficient operation that I've heard and that various stores in other areas can easily absorb dozens, and possibly hundreds of extra employees without affecting profitability/efficiency.Do you have any evidence that those opportunities won't be available? Nope
Up to six months
Again, do you have any evidence that they won't be able to transfer? NopeWhat do you think "try to apply at other stores" means?

Strangely you don't seem to have much doubt about "we need to close the store for up to six months but we don't know what repairs are needed". This is a situation that makes smart business sense to you?
Yes, you are someone who is easily fooled.
I would imagine they're doing that nowAgain they closed the stores down without knowing what needed to be done in the first place? Surely the people who run walmart must have hired some building inspectors to inspect the walmarts in question in order to know that these stores needed repairs and on what. Because how else would they have know that these stores needed to be closed up to six months for plumbing repair. I can't imagine any walmart store managers, supervisors, cashiers, greeters, cart gatherers and other people working at those walmarts being able to make that determination.Sure some of the walmart greeters might be retired plumbers or water and sewer department guys but I seriously doubt they would spend their free time looking all over a huge store for plumbing problems for free.
I would imagine they're doing that now
Do these walmarts have the permits for the plumbing work and why would it it take six months for plumbing? I do not know about the walmarts in other states but I do know that the walmart closed in Tulsa was built only around 20 years ago.The store was built from the ground up instead of a remodel or expansion of an existing store. I can't picture plumbing work back then being so shotty it would warrant closing the store for six months.Nor can I imagine it taking 6 months to fix plumbing problems.
I've never heard of a permit being required to conduct plumbing repairs

never done construction have you?

They came to the decision based on repeated plumbing problemsWouldn't they do that before closing the store down? How else would they have came to the decision to close down the store for up to 6 months if they have yet to inspect the store? I seriously doubt on april 12 they said they needed to close down the walmarts for 6 months and april 13 closed the stores down at 7 pm. They had to think about this decision for awhile,meaning they had plenty of time for inspectors and plenty of time to get the necessary permits.
They are getting two months pay and then become eligible for the severance packageThe two months is severance.
Workers are not 'eligible' for severene pay, it is voluntary from employers, and rarely occurs for non-exempt employees.
I make no judgments on the merits of the complaint, but such a complaint itself would be far from "non-provable." The NLRB could seek documents, electronic communications, and interviews with key personnel. That discovery process could yield evidence as to whether the complaint has merit or lacks it.
Wow....just wow....(shakes head) first they want every Walmart closed, and the Walton's stoned to death....Now they close a couple of stores, and OMG! THEY CAN'T DO THAT!!!! Really?
The stupidity abounds.

They don't know specifically what will have to be fixed. They generally that it's a plumbing problem. Hope that helpsBut didn't you just post they did not know what needed to be fixed?

Of course not. The stores have ongoing plumbing problems leading up to the store closingsThey did not just come to the conclusion that they needed to close these walmarts on the 12th and closed them on the 13 at 7pm.So the "They generally that it's a plumbing problem" is a bull **** answer.
