Negotiations on our next Roanoke union contract with Kroger resume this week. We will be meeting with the company throughout the next two weeks to work toward a new agreement before our current contract expires on Saturday, June 7.
Our members identified clear needs in contract surveys and meetings and we are 100% focused on winning a contract that meets those needs. Our goals for bargaining are:
- Better pay
- Better schedules
- Better staffing
- Maintain health benefits
- More paid time off
There is a lot of work to do over the next two weeks. As contract talks continue, we will keep you informed every step of the way. In the meantime, please don’t hesitate to talk to your union representative, shop steward, or contact us with your questions or concerns.
