MU Health employees not paid in full following cyberattack

COLUMBIA — After a cyberattack against a human resources company, some MU Health Care employees are not being paid in full, a source familiar with the matter told KRCG 13.

MU Health Care uses Ultimate Kronos Group, known simply as Kronos, for employee-centric services. Hourly employees at MU Health typically used the service to clock in and out but have not been able to do so for weeks, according to an MU Health employee.

In mid-December, Kronos disclosed a ransomware attack that affected many of its customers using Kronos Private Cloud, noting that the service was "currently unavailable. Given that it may take up to several weeks to restore system availability, we strongly recommend that you evaluate and implement alternative business continuity protocols related to the affected UKG solutions."

After the cybersecurity breach was announced, speculation arose as to how employee payments would work for affected companies.
