Job Descriptions & Responsibilities

Cashier Duties

Cashiers are the frontline representatives of a retail store. Their primary task is to process transactions efficiently and accurately. This includes scanning items, applying discounts or coupons, and handling payments through cash, credit cards, or mobile payment systems. A cashier is also responsible for issuing receipts and packing items in bags.

Beyond technical duties, cashiers play a vital customer service role. They often field questions about product availability or pricing, resolve customer complaints, and create a positive checkout experience. During busy hours, maintaining speed while remaining courteous is a critical skill.

Cleanliness and organization are also part of a cashier’s duties. Keeping the register area tidy, managing returned items, and ensuring the receipt printer and cash drawer are functioning are all daily tasks.

As of recent data, the average hourly wage for a cashier is typically between $12 and $16, while stockers may earn a similar or slightly higher hourly rate, especially for overnight or physically demanding shifts.

Many retail employers offer starting pay slightly above minimum wage to remain competitive in the labor market. In high-cost-of-living areas, wages may be significantly higher. Additionally, stores may offer shift premiums for working holidays, evenings, or weekends.

While full-time roles often come with a more comprehensive benefits package, part-time employees may still be eligible for perks like store discounts, employee assistance programs, and even partial healthcare coverage, depending on the employer. Some companies, such as Target and Walmart, also offer tuition reimbursement and access to online learning platforms for both part-time and full-time workers.
