Tesco are desperate increase profits, but unfortunately their is no forward thinking or innovation and the only way can do this is take short term measures and cut cost - which can only mean one thing, job losses, reduced hours, reduced premiums and changes to contracted hours.

The frightening thing is that st the moment the company is based on rumours, hearsay and lies - for f@@@sake just tell us the truth no matter how how painful i is

Tesco cant be that bad given they are spending over 3 billion on Booker.

Nothing surprises me anymore, but Tesco one the onestop convenience store group and have been trying to integrate the stores in to Tesco's delivery network , but have wasted a fortune in trying to do so.

Purchasing Booker will enable them to close the onestop distribution centres and supply the  stores (and probably some of the express stores) through booker - resulting in more job losses

I'm not suggesting for a moment that there is any connection but this Booker deal will certainly take the spotlight off how Tosco and their partners Usbore are cheating and mistreating employee's with regards to these current redundancies.  >:( >:( >:(

just watching dispatches on channel4 featuring warehouse working conditions I hope Tesco head office are paying attention  (-*-)

Well that's Likely to happen as far as the One stop part goes,, Not sure about the Express, But don't you think that is part of the cost savings they have talked about ?

Heard on the grapevine that there has been a few curveballs thrown in regarding the redundancy process.

In the case of one stop and the express Tesco have tried to implement several solutions in to their existing network to service the convenience market, firstly to better utilise the fleet more effectively, secondly to intrigrate one drop in to Tesco's network to allow them to close the onestop ageing distribution centres but failed miserably

There is no pay drop for those that meet the criteria of the new role

Cheekymonkey007

Are we talking about Dm in express here ?
Cheeky monkey

Jonthebarsteward

No about the management restructure in distribution, as per the title.of thread and forum board

Cheekymonkey007

Title of this thread is management restructure, not only for distribution.

In reality, there is a pay drop, those that stay will have to cover the duty Manager role, so effectively they will be doing the shift Managers job for less money. Furthermore, were is the development with in Tesco... in short non existent , what is the point of the options program, because at the end of it there's no where to go, add to this the graduate program and throw into the mix that the shift manager role down to the people advisor roles, everything is cut to the bare minimum with no contingency built in ,  it all adds up to one hell of a shortsighted mess.

There's already rumours on this site about the express  duty Managers role being cut , and I'm sure that DD will have further plans to reduce Managers in the stores i.e. one manager in charge of multiple departments/ as will shortly be the case in distribution.

You are correct, any that are left will be in essence doing the shift/duty manager role on a regular basis for no financial gain. Something that holds a significantly greater amount of responsibility than the current role.

We've already had guys on options at our place drop off, all of them saying whats the point in continuing, usually we all know that the goal posts are moved for those on options but this time the goal posts have been taken away, can see exactly why they have had enough.
