Kohl's Corp. plans to hire more than 67,000 seasonal workers nationwide for the holiday shopping season, which the company said is a 15 percent increase over last year.

The department store operator declined to specify how many seasonal workers it hired last year other than to say it was "more than 50,000."

The company said in a news release that it plans to hire about 50 seasonal associates per store and will also offer positions within its distribution centers and credit operations.

According to Sydney Hofer, public relations senior coordinator for the company, that means about 400 seasonal workers will be hired in Las Vegas.

Kohl's plans to hire about 600 seasonal workers total in Nevada, Hofer said.

According to the release, hiring is underway for the store positions and most of the jobs will be filled by mid-November.

A retailer's hiring plans can indicate its expectations for the holiday shopping season, which accounts for 20 percent of the retail industry's annual sales, according to the National Retail Federation.

Kohl's, based in Menomonee Falls, Wis., has 1,163 stores in 49 states.
