I am full time and noticed that management has scheduled me to work six days next week meaning I work 48 hours with only one day off. I did not volunteer to work six days so assuming the schedule stays the way it is should I get time and a half for working that sixth day ? I am a little ticked off because I am almost certain someone will take off a day just before the deadline to make changes to the schedule. If it happens after 12pm saturday, can I file a grievance ? It seems like either someone screwed up or Kroger is playing a real sick joke on me.
I don't know if you can file a grievance if you are scheduled for 48 hours and then changed to 40 hours. Maybe someone else can help me on this one. Management has been known to make several mistakes with scheduling but even if the deadline has past, they can still take a day off to avoid overtime.
It is worth a call to your union rep to get this sorted out if you want to go that way. Back-pay can be done if it doesn't happen immediately, but sooner the better.
