Truck drivers in the United States earn one million a year
Published 11 April 2022 at 19.00
ECONOMY. Tomorrow, new inflation figures will come from the United States. But already now it is clear that wages are skyrocketing, and food giant Walmart is raising its starting salaries for truck drivers from $ 47,130 a year to $ 110,000 a year - more than one million Swedish kronor.

According to the Daily Mail , the pay rises are due to Walmart's general staff shortages and a pent-up need for freight transport.

In total, Walmart has employed 7,000 truck drivers for its internal transports since 2020, when the salary was just under half of what it is today.

The training as a truck driver takes 12 weeks and is handled entirely by Walmart.

A number of about 20 store employees have completed the training so far and thus raised their salaries significantly.
