CINCINNATI — Kroger is an American retailer founded in 1883. It is the second largest general retailer in the United States behind Walmart. Kroger operates over 2,400 stores. The company is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Kroger employees are often required to work double shifts and work additional time before and after their scheduled shift. With the exception of some upper management positions, the employer must pay overtime to workers who work more than forty hours per week. Employers often deny or unlawfully refuse to pay overtime by misclassifying the positions of the workers, requiring them to report to work early but not “punch the clock” until later, striking hours off time cards, or not paying them for work before the shift starts and after the employee punches out for the day. These are violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and can give rise to an overtime pay lawsuit.
