All I can say is "good luck" to those colleagues of mine who 'step up' and promise they'll get paid as such - if it weren't for our wages and admin they'll still be fighting for it long after they've left the company with our current TM  .

Just makes you wonder when all of these changes are going to stop.

So, at Extra's who does the Wage Clerk role whilst He/She is on Holiday/sick/days off??

I had to leave my log in details (not very security focused) so Admin could do my job while I was on holiday.   

No way are you to leave your 'sign on' what if somebody was to make an error on your number or pay extra overtime to themselves or friends, you could be sacked for giving it out! They would say it was you, Gross Misconduct!   It doesn't matter you were asked for it, you know your not allowed to give it out or  share it!

Yup i would advise against wage clerks sharing login info because if a major mistake happens all concerned would go to disciplinary

I am well aware of the policy. But both myself and the store manager were off 2 weeks. All passwords have now been changed.

I also checked the pay of the colleagues who were left my log-ins on Payday as well. I trust no-one.

You obviously do, you left them your log on details 

Unauthorised access of company systems is misconduct as is facilitating that access. Aside from the issues of unauthorised payments, there's the issue of data protection. It would only take a quick data audit to spot that your login was used whilst you were not on shift & the sticky stuff will hit the fan!

If both you and the store manager were off then proper alternative arrangements in line with company policy should have been made.

aye if you and store manager are off and leaves no one, theres a direct head office / area one (cant remember which), that is supposed to either oversee it or assign someone temporarily.. don't go doing stupid stuff like giving your details out... cause it will bite you later to be honest.

There's no way around it either. If you are found to have been sharing such details all will be fired. That's how serious it is

Yeah I know a wage clerk who was fired for giving her login details out to someone who used it to print out a clock in card as well as doing a manual clock.

Don't do it. There is always a paper trail.

Well if the wage clerk wasn't in the building when the clock in card was printed that would be out right stupidity. They should have known better. Every time a clock in card is printed the SM can see

However the current situation is entirely HQs own making. Limiting access to only the Wage Clerk and Store Manager was never going to be sustainable.

Well in Wk 25 it says on Comms all other access being removed to only WC & SM it's not our worry the powers that be know best and must have a plan

Is starting to look like it's the Colleague Admin Role that is going not Wage Clerk.

I still think it is the Wage Clerk as they need to only have wage clerks doing the work then as the Manager's pick up the work the WC will be gone there are already stores trialing it!  The Wage Clerk's come in and found they were unable to sign on nd haven't done any wages work since May!  Just printing off reports! So definitely Wage Clerk eventually, they do not want to pay our 42p

I have herd rumours that some changes are coming to college clubcard can anyone confirm this? And what are the changes?

Guys trust me!  I've posted it several times now.

Wages is going - it will not exist in any shape or form. Admin will be staying but in a stripped back and reduced role to around 4 hours a day.

This comes directly from my SM who is married to an area manager.

See I don't buy it. All Tesco stores no matter how big to small have a Wage Clerk. In the smaller stores it can be 2 hours a day with the rest of that colleagues hours being worked elsewhere whereas in the larger stores it can be full time hours.

Every company needs someone there for wages and resources. Wages is such a crucial thing that the idea the clerk won't one day be there is absurd.

It makes far more sense its Admin going as they only exist in Extras and all their access has and is getting cut. How much more evidence do you actually want?

If I had to make a guess. Admin is gone in all Extras and Wages stays but follows the trend of smaller stores with the Wage clerk working multiple depts

Guess we will know by week 25.

In terms of the staff discount I've seen on My T3sco you can order a secondary card for a family member, even if they live at another address.

Pretty sure that's a "new" addition?

We're not an Extra and we have an Admin colleague...

As/when it goes ahead you can just tell now the big T will "want" the support in the run up to Christmas recruitment and then turn around and say "see ya!" 

Week 25 - all admin colleagues lose access to coms, email, click and learn.

Where does it mention about being able to order a second colleague card for a friend/family member who does not live at the same address as you?

When I go to order a second colleague card for family/friends it says they must live with you permanently at the same address that is on your payroll

To be fair other than possibly email the admins don't need access to all this anyway. The new 'MyTeam' manager layout covers what training their staff have left to do.

Admins are defo being phased out.

Have any of you actually been told what you'll all be doing in week 26 with no access to the system?

From Monday you can order a second colleague card for a different address

Thanks Mr Brightside.

It was online prior to my reply above but then seemingly vanished.

I had it confirmed to me yesterday by the area manager that if the Wage clerk is off its the admin/wages manager who should be doing exceptions, not the admin colleagues.

Anyone sharing account info faces dismissal.

in one of the recent extra and superstore daily news - thursday 27th - From Monday 31 July, you can give your second Colleague Clubcard to a family member who lives at a different address.
also change to flexible working so you can ask for it from day 1 instead of waiting until 6 months.
