What are Kroger's rules regarding the use of smokeless tobacco by employees while on the clock and/or while on Kroger property? My store manager turns a blind eye to this problem and allows a few employees, including a dept. mgr. to chew & spit while on duty. They do this even in our tiny lunch roo...

Tho I've spent a decade buying the Great Value and Sam's Choice generic products, I'm recently finding myself gravitating more to the Kroger brand stuff. The prices are at least comparable and, frankly, the quality is better. Examples of crappy Great Value stuff: paper towels. Man, that stuff is sk...

I've been debating whether or not to post this for about a week now. I've viewed this board as not only a source of very good information regarding things that haven't reached our region yet, but as a place to share input and help other employees. I also include nocturnia even though he is with Wal-Mar...

I am not an employee of Kroger. Just wanted this to get out there. The Kroger store Marysville, Ohio quit accepting vouchers from the Union County Veterans Service Office. This started in 2010.

So the stores in the Fort Wayne area have this thing called Zoo Week. One day of this week starts the event and 3% of all profits that day benefit the local children's zoo.

Does anyone know the Kroger anonymous phone number where you can call Kroger about inside theft, and other stuff that employees should not be doing and need to be fired for? Thanks!

Can a person be fired for looking for another job while still working at kroger? Does the union do anything or can the person still be terminated just for looking for another job.
