First off, let me be clear, this is not me I'm talking about. I don't do stupid sh!t anymore that gets me into trouble, I was also smart enough to not get caught.
We have an employee at the store that got arrested over the weekend, missing 3 days of work. I've never dealt with this at Kroger before so I'm wondering what the usual steps that will be taken regarding this situation. Obviously this person was a no call/no show for the past 2 days and has court tomorrow, which they will also miss work because of it. Anyone know or dealt with this?
Unfortunately, if we lose this person we will be crippled in our dept, as we are already short staffed and we can't just pull someone from another dept to do their job.
Yeah, I'm not sure what the wording of the official policy is, but the general effect is jail=termination. According to the company, we are representatives of kroger even out of uniform and that reflects poorly on the company.
Usually it's corporate policy. EVEN if management wants them
To stay (depending on their offense) if corporate or dm says to say "bye bye" to said employee then bye bye it shall be
Your store manager. Co managers or store managers are the only people in my decision who can fire. Also corporate. I need be. Rx managers just manages the rx not the employees.

They should have found a way to call in and not let anyone at the store know they were arrested. Most probable outcome is termination. We had an employee get a mug shot in a Kroger shirt. Front page pic for home invasion.
He was a nice guy and didn't even need the money from doing what he was doing. He was just looking for the thrill.
