Thousands of Asda workers are set to be impacted by changes announced by the retailer today (January 26). The supermarket is planning to move more than 4,000 night workers to lower-paid daytime roles, while close to 300 roles across the company could be axed.
The supermarket has proposed to move overnight restocking shifts at 184 of its smaller superstore sites to the daytime. This will see staff restocking ambient products between 7pm and midnight, and frozen products between 7am and 1pm instead.
The move puts 211 night shift manager roles at risk. It is not yet known whether Cribbs Causeway's Asda Patchway Supercentre, on Highwood Lane, which is open 24 hours day except on weekends will be affected by the changes.
