Sam’s Club is officially setting $15 an hour as its minimum wage, even though 95% of its warehouse club workers are already making that.
The division of Walmart said it also is raising department leader position pay from $18 to $19 an hour and increasing pay for tire and battery center technicians, personal shoppers who fill online orders, and forklift drivers.
About a third (34%) of Sam’s Club hourly employees will see their pay rise on Sept. 25. Starting pay for Sam’s Club now ranges from $15 to $20 an hour, depending on the market and store location.
Sam’s Club will continue with its “SamShare” quarterly bonuses to hourly employees “at this time,” said Sam’s spokeswoman Rachel Nipper.
