Kroger will pay employees $100 to get the COVID-19 vaccine By Brian Planalp | February 5, 2021 at 6:26 PM EST - Updated February 6 at 10:56 AM
CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Kroger will provide a monetary incentive to its workers to encourage them to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
The Cincinnati-based supermarket chain announced the one-time $100 payment Friday, saying it will go to all associates who receive “the full manufacturer-recommended doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.”
Appropriate proof of vaccination is required.
Associates who cannot receive the vaccine due to medical or religious reasons will have the option of completing an educational health and safety course to receive the payment, the company says.
William Tarantion of Morrison & Foerster filed the lawsuit
LOS ANGELES (Legal Newsline) – A grocers group is suing the city of Long Beach, Calif., over an ordinance that makes grocery stores give workers a $4 per hour raise.
The California Grocers Association filed suit in federal court on Jan. 20 against the city over the measure it passed the day before. The “Premium Pay for Grocery Workers Ordinance” makes employers give the $4-an-hour bump despite any existing bonus, incentive or her pay program already in place.
The complaint notes the role grocery stores have played during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The ordinance unreasonably singles out specific employee classes in specific grocers,” the suit says.
