Not really that relevant, it was head office colleagues only and involved going from Monday-Friday to working one in four Saturdays. Of course it wasn't going to be popular!

Sorry mr fun police. I posted it tongue in cheek... people who work in retail not wanting to work on Saturdays.

Hed office who don't have  clue about how a store works 7 days a week and arn't contactable on 2 of those days.

Quote from: Teddybonkers on 24-01-24, 05:44PMAnd don't forget Tesco will put up to 7.5% into your pension bag every pay day, something Aldi / Lidl don't. Your money is invested by Legal & General and can be accessed at 55yrs. All things considered, there's very little in it now.

Should increase the match rate to 10%

How would anyone know it was tongue in cheek? 

They don't really need to know.

There was a break room quiz? Didn't even kmow about that one, but considering there's what? A couple hundred thousand colleagues only 8k took part says a lot....

We will defo go to 12.20 in my honest opinion. The question is however what do we lose to get that.

Let's hope it's the free food in canteen

I think nothing will be gone to deliver that, Sunday premium will probably go back to £1-£2 extra an hour fixed like it did 10 years ago in Express, (so a downgrade of the premium).

Free food in the canteen, depends on what it is, back when I was Shift Leader we used to get bakery products, baguettes, sandwich filling, tea, coffee and fruit in the staff room, if that's still the case, I think many would prefer the downgrade to Sunday premo, it's not been an industry standard for a while now, Tesco will give up the goose at some point.

"Tesco will give up the goose at some point." How does the type of poultry Tesco sells have any bearing on this?

Do Tesco sell Geese? I can't remember ever selling one on the till.....or seeing one whilst loading/unloading/picking/packing or whatever our new multi skilled role consists of. We don't have dot com....so guess I don't do much of that.

We had them a couple of years ago they were over 60pounds each.

Did they lay golden eggs?

I was told we'll find out our new pay rise, will be Announced beginning of February... so any time now!

Hopefully  , but as usual ' we are always last to know '

Been told by a manager definitely £12.20

Il beleive it when I see it I done my what matters to u nonsense video thingy few weeks back when they try portraying Tesco as a amazing place  the senior manager said then she was told wage negotiations had finished

Yup , your right 1982 dave .
We are the smallest Cog in the tesco system . Seriously  underpaid.  Not appreciated.  Taken for granted ..  The bigger the pay rise the better . As for our toothless union ' Quiet as the Grave '

£11.02

Last year's Pay review was announced by Tesco on 20 Feb 2023. So are we expecting a similar time frame this year?

Still think some of their "language" was disingenuous.

"Tesco has reached an agreement with USDAW that will significantly increase the hourly pay rate for colleagues in stores by 72p, from £10.30 to £11.02. This represents the third pay increase for these colleagues in the last 10 months and an investment of more than £230 million. The combined investment in hourly pay over the last year is a record £450 million.

To reflect the increasing costs our colleagues are currently facing, this new rate will come into effect from an earlier date of 2 April 2023 and represents a 7% rise in base pay. "

An earlier date? (compared to what - our previous several years of delayed until the Autumn pay rises) - anyway - they had no choice but to raise pay from £10.30 in April (at the latest) due to the NLW rising to £10.42.

So, I'm expecting a similar announcement this year

In terms of the Sunday Premium announcement last year the actual words were:

"Continuing to offer Sunday premiums for colleagues who joined Tesco before 24 July 2022 but changing the rate from 25% to 17% – maintaining the value of Sunday working for those eligible. "

so - maintaining the "value of Sunday working" - not sure exactly what that's supposed to mean - I guess it meant "maintaining the actual hourly rate at £12.89 ph" - rather than "maintaining the premium at 25%.

Let's face it with the Sunday premiums for staff who work it if the rumoured 12£ a hour to 12.20 what's been put on here is correct what would be the point on keeping it as it would work out under 10% of the hourly wage if that magic 12.89 is to go by

My understanding is obviously there will be a pay rise because of National wage going up, and to offset the costs then Sunday/Bank Holiday premium will disappear.

Thus making Sunday a normal day to move colleagues into on Right Hours Right Place!
