Tesco announces another pay rise for staff - days after Asda announced wage increase

Tesco has become the second supermarket chain in as many weeks to announce another pay rise for its staff.

It will increase pay for store workers by 7% to a minimum of £11.02 per hour in its third increase over the past 10 months. It comes as Asda announced its hourly-paid store workers would receive a 10% pay increase last week, with rates rising from £11 an hour in April and £11.11 from July.
