Kroger to shut two Long Beach stores due to local hazard pay mandate


Planned Ralphs, Food 4 Less closings highlight issue of pandemic compensation for frontline grocery workers
The Kroger Co. is closing two supermarkets in Long Beach, Calif., because of a new municipal law that mandates hazard pay to grocery workers amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Plans call for the Ralphs store at 3380 N. Los Coyotes Diagonal and the Food 4 Less store at 2185 E. South St. in Long Beach to close on April 17, the two Kroger divisions said yesterday. The chains said the two locations represent 25% of their Long Beach stores.
The Long Beach ordinance (Ord-27), passed by the city council in December and enacted Jan. 19, requires grocery retailers to establish “premium pay” of an extra $4 per hour to wage-earning store associates for a period of at least 120 days. Store managers or supervisors aren’t covered by the mandate, which applies to companies with at least 15 grocery workers for each store in Long Beach and with at least 300 grocery workers ....

Ralphs And Food4Less Locations In Long Beach Are Closing Over 'Hero Pay' | 92.9 TomFM


By Valerie Hernandez
Feb 2, 2021
Kroger just announced that it will close down a Ralph s and a Food4Less location in Long Beach as a response to a city ordinance requiring a $4 hero pay salary boost. In a company statement,
As a result of the city of Long Beach s decision to pass an ordinance mandating extra pay for grocery workers, we have made the difficult decision to permanently close long-struggling store locations in Long Beach. This misguided action by the Long Beach City Council oversteps the traditional bargaining process and applies to some, but not all, grocery workers in the city. The irreparable harm that will come to employees and local citizens as a direct result of the city of Long Beach s attempt to pick winners and losers, is deeply unfortunate. We are truly saddened that our associates and customers will ultimately be the real victims of the city council s actions. ....

Long Beach Democrats Mandate 'Hero Pay' Wage Increase, Which Promptly Forces Two Grocery Stores to Close


AP Feed
Performance art as governance strikes again. This one isn’t as deadly as “defund the police,” but it’s every bit as unmoored from reality.
Grocery stores are not social programs. They’re not funded by the seemingly bottomless pit of money that government officials believe they enjoy.
The Long Beach City Council mandated a pay raise for frontline workers such as grocery store employees. Seems like a fine idea to give people raises if the numbers work out, but they seldom do and the Long Beach City Council didn’t even bother to check and ordering private companies to increase wages isn’t even its job. ....

Long Beach Ralphs, Food 4 Less stores to close over $4 'hero pay' boost for grocery workers – Investment Watch


Kroger, the parent company of Ralphs and Food 4 Less, will soon shut down two of its stores in Long Beach in response to the city imposing a “hero pay” increase of $4 per hour for some grocery store workers.
The Ralphs at 3380 N. Los Coyotes Diagonal and the Food 4 Less at 2185 E. South St. are slated to close on April 17, the company said Monday.
In announcing the closure, Kroger cited a recently passed Long Beach City Council ordinance that mandated the hazard pay bump for at least 120 days amid the increased health risk to workers during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The new law affects grocery stores with at least 300 employees nationwide or more than 15 employees per market in the city. ....
