Walmart “volunteers” work for tips in Mexico
It was reported that Walmart uses 4,300 unpaid teenagers that it lets “volunteer” to bag groceries at its Mexican stores.
The teenagers work for gratuities and Walmart says the teenagers “cannot be considered workers,” and are therefore exempt from Walmart’s “code of ethics” that prevents “associates” from going unpaid.
Meanwhile business is booming in Mexico for Walmart. They have plans to open 125 additional stores and “reported net earnings of $1.148 billion in 2006 ”
