New Albertsons Non-Union Team Members – Vacation
Full-time Team Members hired after the store moved to the United division are eligible for vacation time on the first anniversary date of continuous full-time employment and earn additional vacation time as of each subsequent anniversary date. For Team Members who are hired on a part-time basis and later move to full-time status, benefits such as vacation are based on the date of the status change and not the original hire date.
