Schnucks Expands Flexible Employment Across Midwest

Specialty Food Association

Schnuck Markets has announced that it is expanding its “Flexforce” employment option to additional locations in Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri, following a successful launch in St. Louis.

The Flexforce option allows employees to select shifts and store locations that best fit their personal schedules. The company indicates that it can also be used to create opportunities for growth and learning. Employees can log into the Schnucks scheduling app to view and claim open shifts, as well as opt-in to receive notifications of open shifts.

“Much like rideshare and food delivery service employees, Flexforce teammates are able to seek and claim shifts at the time and location of their choosing,” said Schnucks' VP of store operations, Stacy Brandt, in a statement. “The Flexforce employment option not only allows us to position our teammates for success, it helps us ensure we have the right people, in the right place, at the right time taking care of and serving our customers.”

Flexforce employees will receive the same benefits and perks as traditional staff.
