Kroger is facing four class action lawsuits by employees in five states, along with union grievances across the country.
CINCINNATI — The Kroger Co. experienced “systemic and widespread errors” when it installed a new payroll system in Washington state last fall, according to a new court filing from a human resources manager for the company.
In Cincinnati, the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 75 is getting about 40 complaints a week from a Dec. 22 blog post inviting union members to report problems with Kroger’s new “MyTime” system. “We turn it over to payroll or go through HR,” Brown said. “Our reps follow up with them to make sure things are getting corrected. As far as we can tell, that is happening.”In its public statements so far, the company hasn't explained what caused the problem or how many employees were impacted.
Sharon Simpson, a Kroger cheese shop clerk in Charleston, West Virginia, alleges she worked five weeks without being paid. She’s one of four plaintiffs seeking more than $5 million in damages on behalf of Kroger employees in Virginia and West Virginia. Kroger has responded to those federal cases with arguments that it acted in good faith to identify and correct payroll mistakes and employees failed to pursue grievance, arbitration and other remedies before suing. The company also objects to the use of a class-action process to settle the controversy.
