The company has also agreed to set up a Web site (www.dol.settlement.wal-mart.com) and to staff a toll-free telephone number, (888) 262-1559 or TTY (800) 318-7442, to answer questions regarding the back wages.
A third-party administrator will disburse the payments to the affected employees. The agreement resolves only those violations identified in the consent judgment. It does not affect ongoing private litigation or workers' ability to file complaints with the Labor Department.
Headquartered in Bentonville, Ark., Wal-Mart operates more than 3,900 establishments in the U.S. Back wage payments will go to current and former employees of the company's retail divisions in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, including Wal-Mart Discount Stores, Wal-Mart Supercenters, Neighborhood Markets, and Sam's Club warehouses.
