BENTONVILLE, Ark., June 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
"Clearly, today's ruling in the Dukes case has important legal implications, but, just as important, it pulls the rug out from under the accusations made against Walmart over the last 10 years. Every female associate and every customer can feel even better about the company as a result of today's decision.
"Walmart has a long history of providing advancement opportunities for our female associates, and, over the years, we have made tremendous strides in developing women throughout the organization. In fact, we have created specific training and mentoring programs to help prepare women for opportunities at all levels in our company. As a result of our efforts, Walmart is often recognized as a great place for women to work."
--Gisel Ruiz, Executive Vice President, People, Walmart U.S.
