Give Wal-Mart the demerits they deserve!
One of the best ways to stop the spread of the flu (like H1N1) is for sick people to stay home. But Wal-Mart gives employees "demerits" that can lead to termination if they call in sick!
We think the real demerits should go to Wal-Mart for their bad sick days policy, which risks making the public sick and their employees sicker.
Give Wal-Mart a "Demerit Badge" by signing the petition today! We'll deliver your signatures, along with real demerit badges, to Walmart executives to call them out for their terrible sick days policies.
Sign the petition:
Wal-Mart: Stop your policy of giving employees demerits for taking sick days. It's bad for your employees, your customers, and for public health.
