Kmart Reduces Full-Time Employee Roster
Troy, Mich., Kmart has outlined a new plan that reduces its full-time work force in favor of more part-timers at its 1,400 stores nationwide.
Some recently terminated full-time Kmart employees have been offered some of the part-time slots.
The new plan is entitled “Full-Time-Part-Time Workforce Adjustment Guidelines,” and is one of the latest cost-cutting steps taken by Kmart since it merged with Sears, Roebuck and Co. last year.
