That is difficult to answer. The criteria is more complex than it has ever been before. It can also depend on the group, not just the store. Managers who did not score high enough to get a job in store but who want to stay will be offered jobs within the group. Those who score high and want to go do have the fact that they want to go considered, the company would rather keep a manager that wants to stay. The pay out is different depending on age and length of service so not big for everyone.
There are so many variables it's not a simple answer. Some areas of the country find it difficult to retain colleagues and managers. Some keep people for a very long time. The areas with a high turn over will also have people with a lower pay out but it still might be enough to temp people to go. Some might think half a years wage is enough to go and others will need a minimum of two years pay. Some may say they want to go until they get the confirmed figure. Others may have outside of work things happen that might change the mind. The list goes on and on.

Quote from: Towers45 on 24-02-23, 11:15AMJust been handed an availability form by my store manager and told to fill out and give it back today 

I never had that but we do early starts and late finishes. As we don't have a night team we have to open and shut the shop so SM is very aware of the hours we do. Unless availability is very poor it should not be an issue as new role will no longer be required to open or shut the shop. New role is more mid shifts.

So I'm a part time manager and have not been asked my availability, get told my decision tomorrow about if getting redundancy or not, but was told we have 4 full time positions and I don't want to work full time. Can they make you work more hours currently? 2 managers going from pool.

You can't be made to work full time. If you score high enough and the other 3 managers can cover the store then it's no issue for you. It would be up to tesco to fill the management hours left over from you doing part time hours.

If you got offered redundancy based solely on the fact you can only do part time then that's a major issue

The score system is flawed in my opinion and puts the checkouts manager at an unfair advantage due to the fact Team Support usually sub as manager. 

It will be interesting to see what tomorrow brings. 

Well we got told yesterday, mon27th,about who was staying and going and it's a joke,let's just say  system flawed. Our sm has told quite a few colleagues, so even though we are in consultation and things could change this seems to be ok....

Why are some stores finding out at all different times

The plan was from wed 1st

The official time line should have been

All SM completing scores by Sunday 26th. Additional SM then overlooks the scores on 27th/28th either agrees/disagrees/can question a decision etc.. with all managers then being told the outcome on 1st March.

So by tomorrow all Team Managers should know.

 

If any manager has been off sick during this consultation period where does that leave them?

That's not what we've been told, we've been told that if we're successful we will be told this week, if not then it'll be Monday.

Going off sick makes no difference during your consultation.  SM will tell you it will affect your redundancy or put it at risk,  it doesn't. I would be very surprised that the mgrs who are going thro the consultation don't go off for a few days. Basically the company can do without you, so enjoy so extra time off. Even if you are off sick during the process the SM will contact you via the phone.

Anyone found anything out today?

Our SM is contacting all 5 TM around 9am today. Those not in today have agreed to be contacted by phone call. We lose 1 full time TM, LM already told he is leaving.

Even to those who are staying. Take a few days off aswell. I'm sure mentally it's been a tough month, we owe nothing to this company anymore. We really are just all numbers to them

Totaly agree, loyalty means nothing to this company anymore 

could someone tell me what is usdaw contribution in this process, in my store only one U.Rep which is GA and have no information regarding my concern.

This is hilarious, well done Tesco

The stress this company puts its staff under every January to March is something head office need to have a long hard think about going forward. Just how many more structure changes can Tesco allow in such short time frames

Wasting your breath they couldn't give a s***,it's toxic now.

So been told not selected to stay but only at risk of redundancy as if anyone hands in their notice before 27th of April next one on the scoring system gets their redundancy withdrawn and is then selected to stay.
Typical of Tesco
Step 1 soft changes to panic as many colleagues as possible to move or leave
Step 2 hard changes dangling redundancy but waiting to see how many selected to stay managers go and pull from pool of managers at risk.
If this was colleagues it would be 28 days from start of consultation to redundancy notice.
This has been going on since January and we wont find out until 27th February if we are going.
Tesco is f****ng managers over and dont give a f***. As for the non union sitting in the corner like nodding dogs, they should be punted and a real union brought in

This will have always been the case. Managers have different skill sets, if all want to stay it is bound to be all about the experience. The Team Managers that stay have to better skilled as they make decisions, shift leaders don't.

Where do I find the minutes of the Usdaw meetings for this process?

Thank you 😊

Meeting 4 notes are on colleague help

I'm at risk of redundancy but the lead manager who got the role is handing his notice in, does that mean I get the job role?
