Kroger is paying $180,000 to settle a religious discrimination lawsuit that was filed after two Arkansas workers were fired for refusing to wear new company aprons with a rainbow logo they believed supported the LGBTQ community.
Kroger denied their “Our Promise” rainbow symbol indicated support for the LGBTQ community in the case on behalf of the former employees that worked at a store in Conway, Arkansas.
Workers at the store got the new uniforms in April 2019 that included a rainbow heart embroidered on the top left portion of the bib, according to court documents.
