msn.com - What’s to hate about Wal-mart by Megan BarnettIn a 2005
memo (.pdf file) to the Wal-Mart board of directors, a human-resources executive outlined myriad ways to save money on benefits, including ways to hire healthier people and requiring physical activity for all associates. She even raised the problem that comes with employees who are happy enough to stay at Wal-Mart for longer than the company would like:"(T)he cost of an Associate with seven years of tenure is almost 55% more than the cost of an Associate with one year of tenure, yet there is no difference in his or her productivity," she wrote. "Moreover, because we pay an Associate more in salary and benefits as his or her tenure increases, we are pricing that Associate out of the labor market, increasing the likelihood that he or she will stay with Wal-Mart."
The horror! If we treat our people well, they might actually want to stay. This kind of thinking by a senior human resources executive at one of the world's biggest companies is simply unconscionable. Over the years, there have been too many examples of this kind of pervasive thinking among Wal-Mart's top ranks.
