Peoplesoft making a mess of vacation payouts

The problems with Safeway’s Peoplesoft payroll program continue, with more and more union members reporting they are now being short-changed on their vacation payout.

The practice for Safeway members has always been that they get their vacation pay in advance of their vacation time off. This allows members to properly plan and budget for their vacations.

At least it did until Safeway’s Peoplesoft program was applied to vacation pay.

With the prime-time summer vacation season about to arrive, Safeway members are rightfully concerned about their employer’s ability to get their act together. The employer’s Peoplesoft payroll errors have been taking place on a massive scale since the employer launched Peoplesoft last August.

As reported earlier, the union has filed a grievance against Safeway for breach of the settlement agreement it signed in February (click here for details) that was intended to resolve the Peoplesoft mess.
