WAYNE, NJ (September 22, 2011) – Toys“R”Us® today announced plans to hire more than 40,000 employees to staff its U.S. stores and distribution centers this holiday season, as the company anticipates another busy Christmas across all of its shopping channels. This number is in line with previous years, when the company hired between 35,000 and 45,000 seasonal workers. Throughout the coming months, the company will continue to assess its staffing needs and add more employees, as necessary.
Each year, there are opportunities for high performing seasonal employees to take on extended roles, and in the past, many have obtained full-time positions at the company. In fact, 10 percent of the 2010 holiday workforce is currently employed at Toys“R”Us. Substantial long-term growth opportunities exist for hardworking seasonal employees at Toys“R”Us.
“At Toys“R”Us, one of the ways we differentiate ourselves is by employing a toy-trained workforce who can provide gift-givers sound toy-buying recommendations, and our seasonal staff is an important extension of our team,” said Dan Caspersen, Executive Vice President, Human Resources, Toys“R”Us, Inc. “We are proud to create tens of thousands of jobs across the country this Christmas, while providing the potential for hardworking individuals to find a permanent position with us.”
Hiring for positions at Toys“R”Us begins this week and continues through November. The majority of employees will be hired to staff Toys“R”Us stores across the country, where they will become knowledgeable, toy-trained associates, assisting gift-givers in delivering Christmas magic. Traffic in Toys“R”Us stores peaks in the weeks leading up to Christmas, and the company’s expanded holiday workforce plays an integral part in providing an enjoyable in-store experience for shoppers during this time.
In addition, employment opportunities will be available at the company’s 10 distribution centers, including the newest facility in McCarran, NV, which supports its growing e-commerce business.
As it does each year, Toys“R”Us will provide existing employees the opportunity to take on additional hours throughout the holiday season at their current site or at an alternate Toys“R”Us location. During the non-holiday period, Toys“R”Us employs approximately 45,000 associates in the U.S.
Offering flexible work schedules during the week, weeknights and weekends, seasonal opportunities at Toys“R”Us stores are available for a wide variety of positions — from management roles and sales associates, to back-of-house stock employees. For a complete list of available positions and descriptions, those interested in applying can visit the Toys“R”Us, Inc. dedicated Careers website, Ruscareers.com.

Unveiling the Guardian’s new US homepage
Today we’re unveiling the new url and front page for our US readers. It’s the first tiny step in our bid to improve the Guardian website for US users, and marks the beginning of our new digital operation based in New York.
It’s just one page today, but we hope that by presenting a targeted homepage, we’ll be able to better display the stories that are most relevant to our US readers. You’ll still be able to read, watch and contribute to all of the Guardian’s journalism – everything produced here, in the UK, and around the world is available to all of our users. If you want to look at the UK homepage – or indeed the US homepage if you’re anywhere else in the world – you can do so by using the button in the very top left-hand corner of the page.
As well as launching the new homepage, we’re hiring a new US team of writers, technologists and editors to work with journalists from the UK, to combine the Guardian’s internationalist, digital journalism with American voices and expertise. We’ll build on the successes we’ve already had in live, real-time news, such as our live blogging from the Middle East uprisings as well as our investigative strength in breaking stories such as the phone-hacking scandal. We’ll also be drawing on reporting from the hundreds of Guardian journalists based around the world.
This is the beginning of our efforts, not the reveal of a finished product, so it’s very, very beta. Please tell us what you think – we’ll be reading and responding as well as revising as we go along – and do bear with us over the next few weeks and months as we try to get it right.
Update
Just to clarify: there will be a redirect on the guardian.co.uk page, so US visitors will get the new front page on arrival. As the page has just launched, it will take a while to work, so it will be with you soon.
As you’ve all noted – you will continue to be able to switch between the two using the edition button on the top left of the page.
