Yeah. If youre on a union pay scale to do x amount of sales per week, and after a year you do less than x, they can lower your pay to a lower pay scale.
If youre getting paid at a store scale of $750,000 a week and you average less over a year youll get put on the pay scale of a store that does $500,000 a week
To answer that we would need to know what type of job you are doing, and as everything the particular answer changes depending on what contract area you are in.
Departments heads are paid like the above poster says, by store sales volume and if that volume changes the department head pay will change.
Premiums for doing particular jobs are contingent on working that position, so a cashier won't get the front end supervisor premium for hours not wearing that red vest.
Some jobs have their own pay rate and so if your position is changed it can happen that you lose pay when reclassified to the new job position.
If you are a normal clerk though, no they can't just cut your pay. If you are making $11/hr and a manager says "I'm cutting your pay a dollar an hour because you suck" that should not be allowed in most contracts. If this is you, call your union rep.
It doesn't happen often, but nothing is guaranteed in life. Also, your area may have a Part-Time and Full-Time pay scale, so if you decide not to work as many hours you may have dropped to a lower pay scale. Everything is listed in your Union Contract, while you shouldn't know everything in it, you should understand your rights.
I was working in the field center and got a last chance agreement and wanted to go into the store so I didnt have to get fired again and I have the document saying my pay would not change as a cashier but I moved to click list because they were not giving me hours and my pay drop four dollars an hour. And now theyre trying to say that I didnt get that because I am in the store now even though the paper says I will be making the same pay I was before. Not to mention a lady from HR corporate office wrote the paper up me the union in my store manager signed it. Is there anyway to contact HR myself

Where you previously a Fuel Center Lead/Manager? In my area all Clerks make the same $$, unless they also have some type of title. Did you have experience pay at the Fuel Center? I'm guessing HR manually had to do something to keep your pay as a cashier, when you transferred to Pickup, something happened when they change your job classification. I would say, just fine a grievance and let the process flow like it did in your "last chance".
I believe so in certain situations. Say a dept manager makes $13.00 per hour. But he doesnt do his responsibilities up to standard and he has been warned time and again. In lieu of termination, he is offered the job of courtesy clerk for $7.00-$8.00 an hour. Due to the job change his rate of pay will change as well. This is the only way, I believe, they can cut your rate of pay.
