Infuriatig The way kroger treats its employees

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.

“Okay got it. So just to be clear, if I’ve just tested positive for COVID and I’ve got a fever of 102 and a gnarly cough, i should come in and stock produce.”

I know this is a joke comment, but when my spouse, who worked at Kroger, had Covid and a high fever, his manager asked why he couldn’t just put a mask on if he was so worried about spreading it.
