Have you been given your redundancy date then?
Are you all taking 4 half days on full pay to go to  ;) interviews  ;)
Live for today. Learn from yesterday.

Tattooyou in your redundancy did you get the Tesco service element aswell as the statutory? Is the vlh calculator accurate to your package? Cheers. Still waiting to hear mine

Obviously loads of rumours of what's actually going on but the amount of staff and managers telling the bakers there won't be a redundancy package and will have to relocate to shop floor is crazy at the minute.

lucgeo

And they have full time hours available on the shop floor do they  ???

Job codes are the same are they? Isn't that a demotion?

While all this is going on with the virus will they scrap it.

kaled78

can't help but think this is why they seperated the skills payment,they could get you in the bakery for 3 hours a day with skills payment,then the rest of your pay just ga rate with your hours elsewhere in the store

100% don't have full time hours anywhere, that's why it's being taken with a pinch of salt.

It is my understanding from an old PM manager with years of experience I'm Toscos, that they can offer you an alternative role', but the role has to be like fir like..I'm a packer in the bakery on 23hrs..I start at 6..new hrs start at 5 I canning get there for 5 they said we maybe able to tweak the hrs to 6, I said no that's not what the heat map says the heat map says 5...what's the point in having a heat map?
My job role to pack bread, rolls ect fill intore bakery racks, another collegue does pastries slices bread
New job role...working on my own go to freezer hump boxes about in a freezer that you know is going to be rammed to the rafters load a cage pull it back to bakery..tray up...bake off in oven...remove from oven...

Sorry completely different job role..give me my money I'm off..👍
And just because they offer you another job on the shop floor doesn't mean you have to accept it..it has to be suitable for you..they will try everything they can to get away without giving us redundancy..I detest this company and its sly underhanded way they treat it's long serving members of staff who have served them well over the years..

So has anyone seen what the redundancy package looks like? Not much information, very quiet on that front. There are no full time baker jobs on Tesco job site so will not be like for like. Unless you want to reduce hours just to stay.

I'd be very interested on the impact IR35 will have on Tesco, it may not directly effect the front line staff, but could see a mass exodus of highly specialised and very senior roles based in Head Office.

Just read the new notes from the second Union and Tesco meeting. They have unsurprisingly turned down the Unions request for voluntary redundancies. Not sure if they are on OurTesco yet, i just got sent them from a Union Rep.

That sounds the way our bakery runs just now. We have two people some days. Sometimes we only have one person in and still have to do the lot :)
Life's simple, make choices and never look back.
