I have been with Dillons, a subsidiary of Kroger, for 6 months. I am paid poverty level wages. The week that I was able to sign up for Health Insurance, my hours were cut by 10! This was approximately an $80. a week cut, if I had signed up for the insurance, this would have cost me an additional $30. Who can afford to lose $110. a week, simply to get health insurance. To sum it up, Kroger does not want anyone to get benefits for doing a good job! If you want the benefits of health insurance through them you are going to pay for it yourself!!
