Stores / Re: Bonus payments
Last post by lackofinterest - Today at 03:43PM
agree and they're not paying it till end of may anyway. i doubt i'll notice it especially after tax!
Quote from: Babs on Today at 12:11PMIt's not really a bonus is it!
It's basically the difference in what they've saved by not giving us the pay increase before April,
The way I see it, is it's back dated pay, but they call it a bonus... as it makes the company look good!
nail on head!!!

Agree. It would be good if someone took it over....I wouldn't be adverse to the subs increasing if that helped save the site.

Go into Tesco Help, all the info is there for colleagues to see. It states on a flowchart that Store manager is to investigate failed Think 25 and the investigation should be completed in 14 days. The guidance for managers was updated Feb'23 even though the front cover states 2022.

Well meeting resulted in a first written for the employee, store manager pushed through that unattended does need clarification which he will seek, but says hes spoken to relevant depts within tesco who stated to him that employee would have to be "within the area of the van" whatever that means, i think its definitely a case worth appealing but thats now up to the employee, letter states reason for warning as leaving the van unattended whilst idling the van, with shutters open whilst Again ignoring the fact that their wording is far too loose and should not expect the employee to know that this is "their" interpretation, admits basically that its unclear but still issues warning for the 3 items listed on the warning letter.
And also confirming that we can idle to keep warm if wel lock the van when we exit it, so the idling row the employee got is now pretty much moot point but still on the letter.

Im sure too i seen something in the training one time (a video) showing employees taking shopping to customers cars and not being right at the van either so how can that be right its contradictory

@lucgeo, they would have that explained in the meeting.
It would be either another store manager or SD depending on what the outcome was.
Either way it would be explained in the outcome letter they receive after the meeting.
@dfl. No the HO colleague should not be informed of the outcome as once they have made the initial complaint etc all that would be maybe required of them is a witness statement or further interview meeting.
Either way they should not be informed of the outcome.
The managers personal opinion spoken after the note taker has left the room unfortunately shouldn't interfere with the outcome, unless they say something along the lines of they are being made to do against company policy, but if they are not prepared to back that up then it would be your word against there's.
