Walmart is currently testing body-worn cameras on employees at select stores in North Texas.

The initiative aims to enhance workplace safety and security by providing real-time video evidence in case of incidents.

Employees have mixed feelings about the new policy, with some appreciating the added security and others expressing concerns about privacy.

Walmart plans to evaluate the results of the pilot program before deciding on a wider rollout.
