Today we signed an agreement to extend our current contract through
October 31, 2014.
The contract will remain in effect day-to-day after that, but can be cancelled by either us or Kroger with 72 hours written notice.
Everything in our agreement will remain in effect through that day and when we get a new agreement, it will be retroactive to October 15, our original expiration date.
We have been working hard to get the best possible deal, but in order to get what we deserve, and to get it done right, we need more time. As we continue to work at the bargaining table, we need you to continue to have our backs in the stores.
We are going to start preparing people for what we might have to do if we do not have an agreement by this new deadline. Look for actions and meetings in your stores and contact your representative if you have questions or to get involved.
