I walked past a co-manager's desk and noticed my Enterprise ID scribbled on a Post-It next to his keyboard. This is the same guy who sneaked into my department a few weeks ago to take photographs of "filthy" equipment to rat me out to corporate instead of talking to me directly about it. Yesterday, my department had a problem with some supplies, which resulted in one particularly irate customer whom he had to deal with... So my question is this -- What can management do with our Enterprise ID besides view our contact information and ACT (CBT) progress?

you poor thing. Goodluck when it comes to management. they always win even if they have to lie.
I put "filthy" in quotation marks because I -do- run a clean department and the gentleman in question is OCD to the point that I'm uncertain how he can stand to be in public around all of the GERRRRRRRRRRRMS. I wasn't reprimanded for the photographs he sent in, someone from GO called to have a laugh with me about it. That's not the concerning issue here; what he may be trying now with my EUID is.
Constructive Advice Record. Its part of the write up process.
On another note does anyone actually know the steps of the write up process? What does it take to get canned by your contract rules???
To "Conspiracy" (cute.. theys outs to gets yous.. Look out!) your dept must have really bad to get this kind of attention. I've seen some seriously trashed backrooms in several different stores where no one got in trouble. If I am wrong then here comes that question that must be asked "Who the hell did you piss off and how?!"
the steps, are SUPPOSED to be: verbal warning, note to file, 1st write up, 2nd write up, and a 1-3 day suspension, 3rd write up, permenent suspension, basically, fired.
with me, they skiped steps one and two, went staight to three, 1st write up, and every one in the dept got one because the DELI MANAGER told us the wrong way to do new logs. so we all got a write up, for her mess up.
so rally, i got only step 4 and 5, and got fired.
so in theory, there, there are five steps, unless of coarse, you steal or something.
don't count on it thou. the union rarely inforces kroger going through step one and 2
but now back to the original question asked about enterprise id number......
we all have one assigned to us from the time of hire. it is like our social security number or prisoner number or for some the scarlet letter. with this enterprise number we are able to sign into various corporation systems to perform certain job tasks. The most basic one would be Kronos Time Clock - we all clock in and out each day we work. The ability for management to 'audit' anyone's punches is simply built into the system and can be done with using an employee's EUID. This basic concept holds true throughout any system that we use. I have a hunch he was looking at your ordering records for supplies. It is very possible to look up who ordered what by looking at one's EUID next to the ordered item. Or he is looking at whatever you log into and do company business with.... basically he is snooping around and he is allowed to do it. stay clean and best of luck!

yeah, hes looking for dirt. anything you do on a spa gun, he can see, and such. long as your clean, all he can do, is waste his time.
be carefull thou, if he's actually bothering to put out this effort, and managers HATE effort, he's most likely watching everything you do. hunker down, don't let him get to you, and ride him out. sooner or latter, he'll get transfered.
Our asst. grocery manager had a notation secretly put in his file because the tag maint. boss complained about him marking some Glade scented candles down to what he thought was to cheap.
Think about what you use your EUID for. Do you log into CAO? Do markdowns? Order? Do shelf reviews? Transfer product? All of that gets recorded with your EUID. You can see who last changed the BOH for an item, based on EUID, when they ordered it. How much they ordered. When they marked it down. When they transfered stuff.
They can also log in to your HR page and review your paychecks with it if they have your password.
The most common use for management to have the EUID for though, is to look at your schedule. Did you clock in and out for lunch? Break? Did you take a smoke break but not hit the clock? Did you stand around waiting for the clock to tick a minute past clock out time to collect overtime? They can look and see.

Actually EUID is not used to punch in. That's your badge number. And also does nobody else realize that your EUID is right by your name on most store schedules? It's not that hard to obtain.

Holy gravedig. Nothing like reviving a three-year-old topic.
And a stupid, uninformed post at that one, too.
1. What thedude was saying is that they can see who/when punched in using an EUID number. Yes, you clock in with your badge number, but that's also tied/tethered with your EUID number and your company profile.
2. No, your EUID is not, and should not be on a store's schedule. Ours doesn't have it, just a first and last name. Same goes for all of the stores across my region. It doesn't matter whether you need a password or not. If one fills out some paper form (like the clock in/out sheets if the time clock is down), all you need is your EUID number written down and the times you were in/out. Now, suppose someone puts you down as only working from 1130 to 1430 even though you worked eight hours. It wouldn't be pleasant now, would it?
Actually, EUIDs are printed on the store schedule here, in Nashville division. And I see no reason against that info being on the schedule. If you are that adamant that it not be printed on the schedule, you vastly overestimate how secure that, and all your other personal info, is.
Also, if there were that large a discrepancy between the hours recorded and those written on the log, any T/A clerk worth anything would confirm any change with the employee first.
