Dollar General announced its intention to hire 50,000 new workers by Labor Day in the United States, which is on Sept. 6. This American chain of variety stores’ latest push to recruit so it can fill out the job vacancies in its outlets across the country.
Dollar General, which is headquartered in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, is launching its recruitment event, and most of the new hires will be deployed on the company’s new stores for this year. It was revealed that it is planning to open at least 1,050 new DG outlets before this year ends.

Starting this month, Dollar General will begin hiring, and the target is filling out 50,000 vacancies by the upcoming Labor Day. According to Fox Business, the variety store chain will be employing the new workers to its 17,400 stores, 27 distribution centers, its support center in Tennessee, and drivers for deliveries and others.
