Depends on how well your store manager liked you. They can tweek payroll some.
I am not sure about seniority.
If a union store:
I think when you resigned, you were supposed to fill out a union document/card putting your dues on hold. If not, then you have to start union dues payments all over.

That's just experience pay and they are typically required to do that regardless. As for the union dues it really depends on renewal date. You're not taken out of the union's system until the first of the year and are required to pay any back dues if it's within that renewal period. You typically can get those waved with a little help from your reps but it's a whole process. Probably not worth the time to fight it unless you REALLY want that $20 back in a few months. They will charge you on your first paycheck when you return.

It depends on how long you're out. I've seen people come back within a few months with either seniority or pay but never both.
I would say this doesn't really happen, unless you have an HR person that didn't terminate you in the system. Unless the opportunity it HUGE and 100% dependable, I would always suggest to always just work 1 day a week to keep yourself in the door. I can remember so many people quitting, only to want to get rehired later. In most situations, I always told my HR person, NO, don't rehire, unless the person quit due to personal/uncontrollable reasons. Someone quitting to get a "better job", is just going to quit again, and most likely leave you high and dry.
This is what it says in the Louisville contract under the section Article 4. New Employees.
"An employee who leaves the Employer and returns to work within two (2) years shall be returned to the appropriate full time or part time wage schedule. The employee shall be given credit for previous Kroger experience based on current wage progression."
I couldn't find anything about seniority in regards to things like claiming hours or how many vacations you get.
I have a friend who quit without notice and was term'd but supposedly another store manager wants her to come back and told her to reapply. we aren't sure too if she will get her seniority back. It's kind of an odd situation because she was non union currently too.
If you quit you're done with the company. You're free. You have two years to retain your seniority. After two years it's gone. You get to keep your pay and seniority.
I know a lot of excoworkers who got fired and reapplied 6 months later at another store and they kept their 5+ years of seniority. Same idea with any other company that is coupled with your union. If you say for example get fired at Bartell's and get hired 8 months later at Slaveway you can keep your seniority time you've done with the union.
Print out your final couple of paycheck stubs. It says you did time in a union and most unions will honor that time. If you need to apply for a loan, a car, a house it helps to say you were working.

Something like this in the contact is really funny, I can understand "experience credit", but returning to the same seniority or adjusted seniority is kinda BS. Why would the Union fight for something like this in the contract? Its almost allowing Union Members to come and go as they please without them losing any standing. I personally would be pissed if I worked somewhere for 2 year and then someone got "rehired" and them went above me. Yes, someone transferring in is different, someone walking in off the street, would be some BS. I don't believe anything like this exist in the Cincy/Day Contact. Again, the Union fighting for something that doesn't really protect or promote existing workers.
