沃尔玛暂停H-1B签证招聘,因新增10万美元申请费

摘要

沃尔玛因特朗普政府引入10万美元的H-1B签证申请费,主要影响企业职位,已暂时停止招聘需要H-1B签证的候选人。

美国最大的私营雇主沃尔玛公司已暂时停止向需要H-1B签证支持的候选人发放工作邀请。此举是在特朗普政府近期实施的新政策之后,该政策自2025年9月底起对新的H-1B签证申请收取10万美元费用。该政策主要影响沃尔玛的企业职位,包括技术、数据和财务岗位,而门店层面及国内运营岗位不受影响。

沃尔玛发言人表示:“沃尔玛致力于招聘和投资最佳人才以服务客户,同时对我们的H-1B招聘策略保持审慎态度。”

政府数据显示,沃尔玛雇佣了大约2390名H-1B签证持有者,是主要零售连锁中使用此类签证最多的企业。然而,这一数字仅占其160万美国员工总数的一小部分。

特朗普政府设立此费用旨在改革H-1B签证项目,减少其被过度使用的现象。批评者认为,高额费用可能阻碍企业雇佣外国人才,进而影响创新和竞争力。

美国商会已对政府提起诉讼,认为该费用非法覆盖了《移民与国籍法》中关于H-1B项目的相关规定。

H-1B签证项目允许美国雇主聘用在特定专业领域拥有专业知识且至少具备学士学位的外国工人。法律规定,公司必须证明H-1B员工的工资与类似美国工人的工资相当。

沃尔玛的决定反映了美国企业在新费用政策影响下重新评估招聘策略的更广泛趋势,尤其是在高度依赖熟练外国工人的行业。
