Whilst there are many different rates, the new contracts are all automatable requiring minimal managerial or clerical interventions. The "legacy" contract contains many options and arrangements that require much manual input. Our depot now has few managers that understand the structure and, I'm told, our wages dept has only one clerk up to speed. Maintaining and training that wage dept for a few hundred people can be argued to be too expensive and unnecessary.Quote from: hesketh on 01-02-24, 11:50AMLivingston was a very different case.out of interest as you seem to have knowledge of Livingston's circumstances, could you run through the differences it would be handy to know, and the payroll issue is a red herring as modern payroll software can work out multiple pay differences as all dc,s are on a different rate, sounds like a technicality that wouldn't stand up in court, but that's me speaking not a Lawyer
Tesco would go to the courts to argue that it is not justifiable to operate an entire payroll system for a couple of hundred employees out of 30,000+.
Once they have achieved that number, by getting rid of the few thousand warehouse legacy staff, they have a very strong argument. As Ursus said, good luck with their lawyers
[/quote Livingston was Exactly the same case actually not everyone was on legacy and they attempted to fire and rehire, which they didn't manage
The "Fire and Rehire" attempt at Livingston was about Retained Pay arrangements for employees from the previous depot. They were promised significant pay augmentation in perpetuity. Tesco's bean counters decided that they could save a fortune if they went back on the promise and screwed those employees over. Fortunately the Scottish courts kicked the idea out. However the issue has rumbled on in England with the union winning, Tesco winning the appeal and the union now appealing the appeal. We all know who wins these things in the end eh?
Quote from: oldfashionedplayer on 03-05-24, 10:23AMif they get abuse take it further? - don't stand for the abuse regardless, All i know is ours for night tend to have figured out that if they set off after a certain time from the said depot, they can unload it and by the time they get back they don't have time to go do another trailer, whereas we get some at times that are like yeah i just wanna keep going and just deliver it 3 hours earlier, So I dunno how long you guys are generally on the road / in places for or whatever but ones that deliver to our store at night are typically at the depot most of their the shift anyhow so they may as well just fit it with everything since they typically either aint in it or aint moving from it.Assuming nights, your talking about fresh? Fresh is heavily monitored... if the delivery is not in by the scheduled in-time it flags as late and the DC has to answer to central planning on why it was it. So normally and cant speak for them all, drivers on nightshift who are doing fresh, will normally be out the gate at the scheduled departure time to arrive on time to avoid a late delivery.
