ASDA workers are set to get 10% pay rise after the supermarket announced the increase for its hourly-paid store workers. Rates will rise to £11 an hour from April and £11.11 from July.
The company said it is investing a record £141 million this year to boost hourly pay rates for more than 115,000 staff who work across its 633 stores. This follows an 8% pay increase for hourly-paid retail workers during 2022.
In addition, all eligible hourly-paid store staff who have been with ASDA for more than three months will receive a bonus payment for 2022. ASDA's new rates of pay are higher than the Government’s National Living Wage and the voluntary Real Living Wage recommended by the Living Wage Foundation.
