Released Thursday by a workers’ advocacy group says Walmart, the nation’s largest private employer, routinely refuses to accept doctors’ notes, penalizes workers who need to take care of a sick family member and otherwise punishes employees for lawful absences. The report, based on a survey of more than 1,000 employees, accuses Walmart of violating the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act, among other worker-protection laws.

The group argued in a lawsuit filed last month, and in an earlier complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, that Walmart discriminated against pregnant workers. “Walmart should fully comply with the law so that no one is illegally punished for a disability-related absence or for taking care of themselves or a loved one with a serious medical condition,” said Dina Bakst, a founder and president of A Better Balance, the advocacy group that prepared the report. Walmart said that it had not reviewed the report but disputed the group’s conclusions, and said that the company’s attendance policies helped make sure that there were enough employees to help customers while protecting workers from regularly covering others’ duties. “We understand that associates may have to miss work on occasion, and we have processes in place to assist them,” Randy Hargrove, a spokesman for Walmart, said. The company reviews each employee’s circumstances individually, he said, “in compliance with company policy and the law.” Katie Orzehowski says her miscarriage last fall almost cost her a job.

A cashier at the in North Huntingdon, Pa., Ms. Orzehowski said she tried to use doctors’ notes and hospitalization records to excuse her missed shifts, to no avail. Worried that another absence would get her fired, she went back to work. “I still had a lot of bleeding going on, and that’s embarrassing,” Ms. Orzehowski, 26, said.

Her account is one of dozens included in the report, which clashes with the company’s recent efforts to project a more worker-friendly image. Walmart has long been known for its penny-pinching attention to detail and its to organized labor. But in the past couple of years, the company has announced that it would its minimum wage to $10 an hour and has pledged to invest heavily in training and paying workers. Workers’ advocates have expressed skepticism about the retailer’s commitment to improving the lives of its more than one million employees. Around the same time that Walmart lifted wages, it merit raises and introduced a training program that could keep hourly pay at $9 an hour for up to 18 months.

In November, A Better Balance filed a complaint with the employment commission on behalf of Arleja Stevens, a Walmart employee who said she was fired after missing too many shifts because of complications from her pregnancy. In that filing, the group accused Walmart of violating the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. The employment commission is investigating the accusation, Ms. Hargrove said the company disagreed with Ms. Stevens’s claims. A Better Balance also participated in a lawsuit last month alleging that Walmart discriminated against pregnant employees The company has disputed the claims of the two women at the center of the suit. A Better Balance wrote the survey questions used for Thursday’s report.

The questions asked employees whether they believed that Walmart had a problem of regularly punishing people for absences relating to an illness or disability, and about how the company treated absences. The group worked with the labor group OUR Walmart, which promoted the survey to workers who listed Walmart as their employer on Facebook, according to Andrea Dehlendorf, a director of OUR Walmart. “Although this system is supposed to be ‘neutral’ and punish all absences equally, along the lines of a ‘three-strikes-and-you’re-out’ policy, in reality, such a system is brutally unfair,” the report says of Walmart’s absence-control policy. “It punishes workers for things they cannot control and disproportionately harms the most vulnerable workers.” Walmart assigns disciplinary points for unexcused absences and other infractions.

Nine points in a six-month period can result in an employee’s being fired, according to a copy of the company’s absence policy reviewed by The New York Times. New employees may be fired for accruing four points in their first six months.

A Walmart Supercenter in Walmart has been criticized by groups and individuals, including and small-town advocates protesting against policies and business practices and their effects. Criticisms include charges of racial and gender discrimination, foreign product sourcing, treatment of product suppliers, environmental practices,. Walmart denies any wrongdoing and says that low prices are the result of efficiency. In 2005, labor unions created new organizations and websites to criticize the company, including and. By the end of 2005, Walmart had launched to counter those groups. Efforts to counter criticism include a public relations campaign in 2005, which included several television commercials.

The company retained the firm to interact with the press and respond to negative media reports, and has started working with by sending them news, suggesting topics for postings, and inviting them to visit Walmart's corporate headquarters. In November 2005, a documentary film critical of Walmart ( ) was released on DVD. Economists at the say that Walmart is successful because it sells products that consumers want at low prices, satisfying customers' wants and needs. Walmart's critics say that Walmart's lower prices draw customers away from smaller Main Street businesses, hurting local small-town communities. Critics also say that Walmart is hurting the United States economy because of excessive reliance on Chinese products. Walmart is the largest importer in the United States in many categories such as electronics. The 2006 book by business journalist Charles Fishman contains much of the criticism, though it also enumerates Walmart's positive impacts within society.

Walmart opened its Teotihuacan Superstore near the amid community protests. When Wal-mart plans a new store location, as often as not the company has to fight its way into town in the municipal equivalent of civil war between pro and anti Wal-Mart factions. Opponents cite concerns such as traffic congestion, environmental problems, public safety, bad public relations, low wages and benefits,. Opposition by activists, competitors, local citizens, labor unions, and religious groups may include protest marches, property damage to store buildings, or by creating bomb scares. Some city councils have denied permits to developers planning to include a Walmart in their project.

Those who defend Walmart cite consumer choice and overall benefits to the economy, and object to bringing the issue into the political arena. In 1998, Walmart proposed construction of a store west of the intersection of Charlotte Pike and outside.

The building site was home to both Native American burial grounds and a battlefield. Protests were mounted by Native Americans and Civil War interest groups, but the Walmart store was eventually constructed after moving graves and some modifications of the site so as not to interfere with the battlefield. Civil War relics were discovered at the site. The project developers donated land to permit access to the Civil War historic site. The Native sites were removed and re-buried elsewhere. A Walmart opened in 2004 in, 1.9 miles (3.1 kilometres) from the historic archaeological site.

Although the location was supported by Mexico's National Anthropology Institute, the United Nations, and the Paris-based, there had been protests organized by local merchants, as well as and groups who opposed the construction. Poet called the opening as 'supremely symbolic' and '.like planting the staff of globalization in the heart of.'

Archaeologists oversaw construction and discovered a small clay and stone altar along with some other artifacts where the store's parking lot is now located. In 2005, developers demolished the long-closed in, Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh, with plans to build a shopping complex anchored by a Walmart. While there were initially no general objections to the Walmart store itself, many residents did not want to see Dixmont demolished, despite the fact that the Dixmont complex, having been abandoned in 1984, was beyond maintainable condition and teenagers were dangerously trespassing onto the property on a regular basis. However, while the land was being excavated (after the hospital complex was torn down) in order to create a plateau for the store to be built upon, a landslide occurred covering and the railroad tracks between PA 65 and the. Both routes were shut down for weeks.

While Walmart did 'stabilize' the landslide, many residents said that Walmart merely stabilized the hillside so that it could continue with work to build the store. Ultimately, in 2007 Walmart decided against developing the site, allowing the land to return to, with a Walmart location to be constructed in nearby instead next door to the and scheduled for a 2013 opening.

In the 2010s, a proposal to build the Midtown Walmart supercenter in was met with litigation and opposition from local businesses, delaying construction of the project. A panel of judges denied the opposition's challenge of the city's approvals and Walmart broke ground on the development in January 2016.

In 2014, researchers at the University of South Carolina and Sam Houston State University published the results of a study to determine if Walmart affects local crime rates. The study found that the crime rate in US counties that have Walmart stores declined at a much lower rate than the rest of the country since the 1990s.

Allegations of predatory pricing and supplier issues. The of this section is. Relevant discussion may be found on the. Please do not remove this message until. ( September 2018) Midtown Walmart is a controversial proposal by to build a 203,000-square-foot (18,900 m 2) location on a 4.6-acre (1.9-hectare) site in the sub-district of in the city of, US. The proposal never met local regulations because Walmart never owned all of the land upon which it planned to build, yet they fought for five years to build on land they didn't own and the City violated its own laws to help make that happen.

A Walmart Neighborhood Market in western fringes of the city. After more than two years of litigation, Walmart won their first court battle in August 2015. The litigation once again targeted the City's departure from the law by providing Walmart illegal zoning variances and the illegal street re-configuration caused by the development which would contribute excessively to local traffic problems.

The Midtown development already contains a and a which makes another big box retailer like Walmart redundant for the site. The Walmart broke ground with an illegal permit from the City of Miami in January 2016, after a panel of state judges in the 3rd District Court of Appeals blocked a petition challenging the development.

In 2016, Stern won a judgment against the City of Miami in a public records lawsuit related to Walmart's plan to build in Midtown Miami. That case proved Stern's claims that Walmart did not hold good title to all the land upon which they obtained a permit to build from the City. As a result, the City of Miami froze their permit and eventually, construction of the Walmart was involuntarily halted when the City revoked their foundation permit on June 21, 2016 and construction ceased at the site within the week, which is how Walmart's vacant Midtown site remains. As of October 17, 2017, the site remains undeveloped.
