Soaring inflation and chronic staff shortages have forced Currys to become the latest major retailer to increase wages repeatedly, with workers offered a third pay rise in 13 months amid the cost of living crisis.
The electrical goods retailer said it was taking action to attract and retain staff, as companies across Britain struggle to find enough workers to fill a record number of job vacancies. With effect from 30 October, basic pay levels will rise by 3.5% to a minimum of £10.35 an hour, or £11.43 in London.
