To be fair getting potatoes to the top tier is pretty bad on your back no matter how careful you are.
I've been in  store with a 4th tier that was aweful. just used to unload half the case and handball it on/in

Yes I've worked in a store with 4 tiers on produce, how that ever passed health and safety I'll never know. Produce department is a hard days work

hi, are u in an extra?

A wide range of changes it seems so far

I'm in an extra wage clerks going

Anything about stock and admin?

So so far we have at least one phone shop and some wage clerks going.

Possibly scratch bakery.

Is the reduction to 2 tiers in produce a reduction in number of lines or quantities of each item? ...and is it likely to need a reduction in staff numbers?

Wages going in my store

Is wages going across all formats or just extras?   

Wages going in my store. No redundancy

Has anything been mentioned about the 4 night working week for night managers or is the only news so far that night leads are back and if so does anyone know if they are back in all stores they were in last year or are some stores keeping no night lead?

As a night TM I hope they bring a night lead back in my store as I personally feel since our lead was made redundant last April the night shift operation with the new shift leaders and the other night manager has been chaos with us being under staffed with no planning happening beforehand,and no one really being in charge of any of us apart from our day lead who sees us for 45 mins a week maximum

Any news on stock control?

Hasn't been a lead night manager in our store for at least 4 years, can't see them bringing one back in our store now.

No night team at my store since 2016, I would be surprised to see it come back

Any more news on scratch bakeries at all? I'm surprised ours is still going, we've only got three bakers now and one of them is part time.

I've only seen one comment which said that their scratch bakery team had been called into a meeting.

I think everything we're hearing so far is what is happening in each individuals store.

Thanks, I guess I'll wait and see what happens at work tomorrow.
