Get Ready With Kyle as He Breaks Down Walmart’s GRR

Meet Kyle. Last year, this associate starred in a video where he took on quite the challenge: summing up Walmart’s Global Responsibility Report in the time it took for him to walk to his desk in the morning.

In 2018, he accepted the task once again – this time giving us the download while he gets ready for work.

Why does this matter? Well, Walmart is a big company, so the GRR is a big report. It’s a lot of information to digest, but what that ultimately translates to is the big difference that can be made in the world: investing in the communities we serve, helping the environment and taking care of our associates and our neighbors.

The GRR details all sorts of ways Walmart is working to build a better society and a stronger company. Those efforts range from reducing chemicals in our consumable products, continuing our American-made products initiative that could create as many as 1 million new U.S. jobs, and helping associates at all job levels acquire the skills they need to advance.

You can read the report summary here, but if you’re short on time, check out Kyle’s take in the video below.
