Wal-Mart’s success in Human Resource Management is keeping their
workforce of 1.3 million from unionizing, while adding to it and pursuing other
HR activities to further Wal-Mart’s success. Wal-Mart would not have been
able to expand and have the same level of success without hiring and taking
care of quality employees. Some of Wal-Mart’s human resource activities
include employee advancement, employee recruitment on college universities,
and employee training and development. Additionally, while most firms have
slowed down their hiring of new employees, Wal-Mart has sought out new
ways to attract employees to compensate for their further expansion over the
next five years.
