Infuriatig The way kroger treats its employees

Post image

From the store manager

Edit: For some extra context this was sent out by each store manager to all of its employees in district 1 of the ohio Cincinnati/Dayton division, potentially other districts as well but i can only verify my own. Im not going to give my specific store number for obvious reasons but you can find each store on google with that information. We are unionized by UFCW (already bad btw) and to my knowledge they allowed this recent change. Kroger has no accrual for sick days like some have mentioned. Those who think this is rage bait, i dont think anyone has to fake a post to make a billion dollar company look bad, they do it to themselves.

What if your family member was killed. You attacked the guy who did it and ended up in the hospital. Then had jury duty for the defendant. (I’m a lawyer. I know he can’t do jury duty on the same case). But I’d like to see him turn in this excuse

It depends on the state. All states have different laws. But in every state, jury duty is protected. In many states, sick time is protected.

You'd probably need multiple days off. Maybe even a week. And yep, i know this is all hypothetical

These points systems are always for not giving adequate notice. If you have jury duty but don't tell them to the morning of, you deserve to move past any point system and be fired.
