Apparently I wasnt paid for the vacation I took last week. I checked my bank statement and received no direct deposit. So I checked express hr and its still showing my last check from 06/04. I didnt have a problem last year so whats different this year
Did you write it in your timeclock correction book?
Whoever does payroll would make sure it got entered on payroll. With the Kroger track record for communication, it is the only way to make sure you get paid.
I have always written vacations in the correction book so I am not sure if eschedule is supposed to automatically pay you for vacation.

No our new store manager took the time clock corrections book away. Said if you can sign into the timeclock use it . If you need an override, then find someone who can override you. Only time we use the book is if we have a power outage due to a storm.

then there you go. that is why. JUST contact your manager or one of the co managers in the store and tell them. THEY can fix it.
Talk to your HR/ARM if you have one. I love how they say someone can clock you in but what if the time clocks aren't working or they CSM isn't there or waiting on customers.

That happened before. Our time clock started acting weird so everyone started freaking out because we didnt trust if it was recording our clock ins. The managers still refused to allow employees to sign the book.
But Im here now talking the store and apparently Im not the only one who didnt get paid for their vacation.
How can you sign in and out on the time clock if you are on vacation? Go over their head and call the DM or your union rep. Stir it up.
you sign the time clock corrections BOOK for vacation. its not the actual time clock ....................
I was referring to this: " No our new store manager took the time clock corrections book away. Said if you can sign into the timeclock use it . If you need an override, then find someone who can override you. Only time we use the book is if we have a power outage due to a storm."
His manager took the BOOK away. The anon states that the manager said sign into the TIMECLOCK. That's the way I understood it. Seems kinda simple to understand to me.

In 25 years of working at Kroger, that is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Our timeclock corrections book is usually 3 or more pages long every day. We have two time clocks and two clipboards for corrections. Most of them are people who can't get the reader to read their fingerprint. Many of them are people who are working a different shift than what they were originally scheduled. In any case, you still have to punch the timeclock. It'll give the error message about being restricted or whatever, but it will still record the punch. There's only been two times where I didnn't punch the timeclock. The first time they were doing an upgrade to the system and they told everyone to write down their breaks and lunches and start and stop times. You just have to assume that people are going to follow the honor system in that case. The second time i didn't punch the clock was when It said 12:50AM and it was really 6:00AM.

Human error happens. Your store should have a standard place for this vacation info to be kept.
Even if it's in eschedule, when doing payroll we go into Kronos and set it with a "Vacation Week" paycode so you do get paid. I hate the time correction sheets because every person's times have to be printed and checked manually. Some people never work their scheduled times (why??), many write down things when they don't need to.

Perhaps because eschedule does not work, e.g., booking a full-time overnight stocker for four-hour shifts or regularly leaving dairy without a closer on a weekend evening. Instead of acknowledging failure, management pretends and chases "15-minute ratings" (to what end?) but wisely allows folks to actually work above and around the unworkable schedules generated by the algorithm.
Regardless if they "took the book away", the book still exists... and vacations have to be entered manually. I'm sorry this happened.
A year or so ago, mgt *took* our book away too, because there were so many changes being made due to E-Scheudule screwiness, so they made a rule that any sign-ins in the book had to be approved by a dept head or management, upstairs.
I did make our store manager laugh one day when I came upstairs, asking for the time and attendance book, referring to it as "The Book of Shame". :p
