Human Resources Opportunities

Linking talent and strategy.

Some companies proclaim that their associates are their greatest asset. At Publix, our associates are the company. Their talent provides our competitive advantage. That's because Publix hires individuals who have high standards, a deep desire to make a difference, and a keen sense of teamwork, and then supports their professional growth—through coaching, training, and advancement. Our associates are also owners of the company.

Our Human Resources team directs many of the initiatives designed to further the potential of the more than 140,000 associates at Publix and to further the company's ability to deliver premier customer service. In other words, HR helps ensure that Publix has the right talent in place to execute the company's strategies.

Our Accomplishments

In 2008, HR associates helped:

  • screen around 500,000 applicants
  • process more than 42,000 hires
  • test nearly 10,000 associates seeking a promotion
  • conduct more than 1,000 training sessions
  • survey all 140,000 associates to obtain feedback about many aspects of the company, and
  • coordinate succession planning for all store management positions and a wide range of leadership positions throughout the company.

 

Other Contributions

HR also contributes to other strategic initiatives by:

  • assisting in defining standards for the delivery of premier customer service.
  • providing field support to all of our stores, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and corporate offices—on topics ranging from recruiting to retention, performance evaluation to reward systems, conflict resolution to legal compliance.
  • surveying every Publix associate once a year for feedback on our leadership, business tools, compensation package, and policies.
  • developing and delivering educational programs to help achieve the company's business objectives.
  • influencing decisions on the geographic markets in which we choose to operate.
  • promoting diversity in every respect.
  • evaluating each new technology designed to increase the effectiveness of HR functions.

HR has another role: to help the company comply with all employment laws. We have attorneys, legal specialists, investigators, and associate relations specialists to serve as consultants to all sectors of the company.

The more than 300 associates in HR also process every paycheck, archive every attendance record, and establish pay ranges for every position.

Come join a team that devotes its energy to the people in our company.
