Thousands of Asda workers will get their hourly pay cut despite the cost of living crisis.
1,500 delivery drivers will be affected by the decision by the leading supermarkets, as more than 12 per cent of pay will be cut as households continue to battle against rising costs. The £1.50-an-hour premium introduced in the summer across some 35 stores in London and the south coast is ending.
The premium to drivers’ £10.10 an hour rate is being scrapped on October 21. Asda had previously promised to keep the enhanced rate in place until Christmas, Mirror Online reports.
