"Walmart Inc (WMT.N) on Tuesday said it will raise average hourly wages for its U.S. store workers starting next month, as it seeks to attract and retain employees in a tight domestic labor market.

Walmart's new wage hikes lift its average hourly wage pay to $17.50 from the current $17 an hour and will reflect in March 2 paychecks, the company said. The minimum wage will rise by as much as $2 for staff at its U.S. stores to a range of $14-$19 per hour, depending on location, a spokesperson said in an email, adding that about 340,000 workers at about 3,000 stores will be eligible."
