When Wal-Mart employees in Jacksonville, Texas, tried to form a union in their meat-cutting department, Wal-Mart responded by eliminating meat cutting in every single store.
Workers at a Wal-Mart store in Jonquiere, Quebec, successfully formed a union. But rather than negotiate with the employees for better wages and health care, Wal-Mart shut down the entire store.

You probably think you've heard all there is to hear about
Wal-Mart's misdeeds. But do you know how far Wal-Mart goes to prevent its employees from standing up for themselves?
When Wal-Mart employees try to form a union, they face threats,propaganda, discrimination, intimidation, and even firings. Is this anyway to treat employees who just want to negotiate for better wages, more affordable health care, and basic protections on the job?
New employees at Wal-Mart are often indoctrinated against unions the moment they're hired. During orientation Wal-Mart reportedly forces associates and management to:
- Watch anti-union videos,
- Read a section in the employee manual against unions, and
- Learn the number of the hotline to call if they suspect a
fellow employee of supporting a union.
