Walmart Expands Health Care Benefits Offerings for U.S. Associates, Responding to Their Changing Needs As a company, we continuously review our benefits and well-being programs, and thoughtfully make updates based on what makes sense for our associates. That’s why for 2022’s open enrollment period, happening now through November 16, we’re excited to launch a number of new and expanded programs that will help our associates get quality care in convenient ways. We’re also keeping medical plans as low as $31.40 per paycheck for associate-only coverage in most locations. In addition, we continue to offer a host of great benefits year-round that go beyond the standard medical, dental and vision plans and help take care of our associates’ physical, emotional and financial well-being. The right benefits at the right time can be life-changing.
As the most wonderful time of the year approaches, we’re planning to hire approximately 150,000 new U.S. store associates, most of them permanent, full-time positions across the country. This will ensure we’re ready to help customers shop however they want, whether they’re in a store, using curbside pickup or shopping online. We’re always looking to add great talent to our incredible team of dedicated associates – the every day heroes who have been a constant force for good in their communities amidst the uncertainty of the past year. Before we know it, millions of customers will count on our team to help find those great gifts and holiday meals, and we’ll be ready. Many of our store associates like to pick up extra hours over the holiday season, and we’ll continue to offer those opportunities. We’ve also invested in our associates by making three major wage increases over the past year, offering more full-time roles and paying 100% of their college tuition and books through Live Better U.
